Might be the torque convertor in the transmission or a burnt overdrive band, try driving with the OD light on, or locked out and see if it goes away?

When I start my car in the morning, the engine seems to have a misfire, but when the engine warms up the misfire stops. What could cause this. 3 answers
Replaced spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, intake gaskets, and ignition coil. When I take off a plug wire from the distributor, I see scratch-like markings on the terminal.

I have a 1996 Thunderbird. When I try to start it, it cranks but the engine doesn't stay running. 9 answers
If I start it, and hold the gas for a few minutes once it turns over, it stays running. But if it sits for a few hours, I have the same problem again. Any ideas?

I have recently aquired a 1963 T-Bird that runs OK and looks good. BUT, the brake pedal is as hard as rocks to push on (need both feet to stop, at best) to get the the car stoped. Where should I start, and what could be the fix? Or, what publication would be available for troubleshooting, not necessarily a repair manuel (althoughthat may help for part removal and replacement) i want to know what likely is the problem. 5 answers
Hard as hell brake pedal resistance, brakes do not seem to drag.
