    Photo #136. Lose the spade terminals. Google how to tie wire, crimp on a barrel and add two layers heat shrink tube. Check by blowing thru or just change filter. Check filter on carb hookup too....

    Setup a temporary fuel tank and line to carb. You need to start to narrow down your search. Cheaper than a tow. Engine forward or fuel line back. Blas

    Boy, the more I think about this, the more it comes back to a coggled fuel pick-up in the tank. The car's 40yo, probably sat most the time, fuel tank metal breaks down (Scale, rust). Bill what do you...

    Electrical connections to the pump, ground to the pump, the pump itself, all suspect. Did you run the fuel line, or did your mechanic? Perhaps fuel line to close to starter, exhaust manifold or...

    Pictures show an Edelbrock carburetor. On them there is a fuel filter at the fuel line inlet. Some remove that filter when an inline one like yours is added, others leave it in. I would check to be...

    No fuel was getting to it, when the good Samaritan looked at the carb, so start looking at the petrol supply lines. Check for inline filters. Trace it back to the tank and if there is nothing along...

    Are you certain you were using starter fluid to try to start the car? Did you check the connections from the coil to the distributor? Did you check the connections both at the coil, and distributor...

    I had a similar symptom, which was solved by removing the strainer/sock on the fuel pick up. We diagnosed the problem, by working backwards on the fuel system. When the engine died the carb bowls...

    Replace the Hall effect trigger in the distributor. That is your problem most of the time, I have a new spare one in the glovebox. The MSD light blinks 5 times if it’s ok when turned on. Pull the...

    A bit more information would be helpful. If it is vapor lock, pull off the air cleaner when it dies and look down the carb. Is it squirting gas? If so, not vapor lock. Next, buy one of these...

    Too few details on equipment to do more than guess. If its an electric fuel pump feeding a carburetor, I'd install a fuel pressure gauge mostly because of the new fuel pump. I always look at recent...

    What you have here is a little tiny piece of silicon that was used to seal your fuel inlet to the tank. It will intermittently get picked up by the fuel pump and clog at the inside of the tank at...

    If using an MSD box, check your ground wire from the box to the chassis. In fact, check all ignition grounds. Then swap in a fresh coil as well.
