Great info!!! I don't think that this engine is original, probably a late 70's! I couldn't find any numbers on the block by the #6 cyl. but I'll try and find out what year motor is!! It ran fine and started missing bad so they rebuilt the carb and that was the beginning of the nightmare!! I will read up and dive back into her next week!! Thanks for all the help!! |

How does it die? When you let off the key? After idling? After putting load on it?

I'm having trouble replying!! What do I do to reply? It runs a little while when I let off the key to the run position!! It sounds like it floods out! I pump the gas and it tries to run but eventually dies. Runs rough but sometimes it sounds like it is hitting on all 6!! I don't know how to post photos or I could give you a few pictures!! Sorry about reply troubles!! Thanks so far!! |

Have you checked the condition and gap of the points in the distributor? |

Fixin' to jump on it in a bit!! Started her up this morn and she started right up and was hitting on all six and then it seemed like it was starving for gas! I pumped the pedal but she just died!! I can't figure out if it's flooding are starving!! Oh well, thanks for the info!! I'll make sure she's timed right and check the points and take it from there!! |

next time after car starts , and engine dies, remove a spark plug and look if it is covered in gas. I had a similar problem where it would not start, after removing a plug found it was covered in gas. I changed carb and now it is okay. |
