my 73 2.0 started hesitating just this week when i rev at end of 1,2,3 gear,acts as though its not getting fuel,and it will just die if i come to an stop.i can get it started again,but it takes a bit of cranking. it will then run well and i have to keep revs up to avoid it dying at a stop .i changed fuel filters,have not changed tank sock.fuel pump is running.it has 2- 34 carbs, fairly new..
is this enough info to get some opinions.i wonder if either the fuel sock is full of crap or fuel pump is bad.it too is fairly new. |

i have 2 inline filters,clear and then the plastic aluminum one,i changed both of them.at idle if i rev no stumble.this issue has progressively gotten worse.it began as a very slight stumble under load.then car would die at idle as though it was not getting gas.yesterday i drove to work for about an hour and there was a hesitaion occasionally.on way home ,it dies as i was slowing down on freeway.got it started after a lot of cranking,could hear fuel pump running.the rest of way home i had to keep revs up whenever i came to a stop.it finally dies again at top of driveway allowing me to coast to my garage.
do i need to take tank out for sock filter.or can i get it from below. just wondering if the electric inline fuel pump is going,or if pressure regulator is bad.i do get quite a bit of smoke on startup. |
