sounds to me like you have a plug wire crossed, did you remove any plug wires? the only other thing is you could have gotten a bad carb.

you are creating a spark near your carb., check your wire connections in this area. make sure you have a wet towle or extingiuser near before you try to start your car.ps good luck., if that doesnt work ! buy a ford.

Your carburator air & gas mixture is not properly balance. Have it checked by a carburator specialists.

You need to figure out if it is the carb or the ignition.Disconnect the + wire on the coil and watch to see if the carb is pouring fuel in the engine while cranking.If it isn’t then check firing order,18436572. The mechanical timing may be off.
Really need to know what other work was done.
