As this is not my ute its smitty93's and im just a mate helping him..

As of yet i have still not changed the antideiseling solinoid or checked the timing

Have checked.

As another idea too is pulled the spark plugs, and check for fouling..


not fouling

Quote:
Try and check/confirm that the wire(usually black) which goes from the points to the power in the dizzy is not in contact with any part of the dizzy housing.(i hope that makes sense)


checked it multiple times its not fouling and is seated correctly and getting power

Quote:
Have you tried, swapping out the coil also.

Yes no difference

Quote:
If the problem took place suddenly and changing the points helped. It is electrical. The 30 second run is possibly a different problem. Is fuel getting into the carb? Check the little window in the carb , it should be right to the center.


yea fuel to carb swapped carb and manifold and also fuel pump and fuel filter and swapped around to test different scenario's

Everything has been done at least three times now (refer to earlier post's to see what has been done) and even checking things i usually wouldn't (i.e bad fuel) only two things i have not done is timing (which i for the car to be running fine then just jolt around and then die i can't just see it throw the timing) but in saying that still to check and anti dieseling solenoid..

All earth's are fine car tries to start no issues but will only start once a fair amount of fuel has gone in and throttle is on then only stays on for 30 seconds on then stall's which makes me think fuel or air but changed the fuel pumps and checked the gasket's (diaphram) no leaks and fuel shows to be fine and working with same pressure when not connected but going into a pot instead of carby air pressure into carby is a constant and no more or less than normal

You are doing things mostly right but it certainly is frustrating.

There are a few more things which can cause trouble but I'm thinking it may have something to do with the distributor.

1. check for continuity of the small wire between the points and the coil. It should have less than an ohm resistance.
After checking it wiggle it a little and check again.

2. The advance mechanism in many distributors is controlled by fine springs which resist the pull of spinning weights. Things get strange if a spring breaks.

3. It is far less trouble to check the ignition timing than to take the distributor apart. You have to adjust the timing in any case as you worked with the points. Check the timing.
It is also under vacuum control and that hose should be squeezed shut when testing timing or the numbers will be way off.

Electrical problems are usually on or off,but sometimes they be intermittent.

The 30 second runs do sould like a fuel-related issue as they repeat so evenly. It can run a little while on a floatbowl of fuel, but not very long.

Valve timing chains can jump and make an engine stop, but they usually don't change back and forth so the engine runs and stops again and again.

An anti-dieseling solenoid is supposed to shut it off.
So if it was acting up it would be a prime suspect. If there is one there, remove it, remove its "pin" and replace the solenoid valve.

For the short time it runs, does it run normally?

Persist. You will solve it.

how old is the motor it might have jump a tooth on the timing, sound like internal to me.
