1971 Sedan runs fine. I have over hauled the carbie including linishing the body contact surfaces, new plugs, replaced the points with Petronix etc. The car has run great for a year. Gets regular oil, plugs etc.
Yesterday she started running rough. By the time I get to work she would not idle. Lifting the foot of the accelerator was just like turning the ignition key off. she ran fine under acceleration but would not idle.
At lunch time at work I looked for possible fuel blockage/filters/idle mixture screw movement/ air leaks in vacuum hoses etc etc with no luck.
Driving home started the same way as getting to work. All of a sudden she ran OK. Idles smooth, accelerates smooth. All OK this morning to work.
Dont ya just love em!!!!
Probably just waiting until I am dressed up to go out before doing it again.
