Thanks to everyone for the responses!

The car was completed in June of last year. The entire fuel system is brand new. Fuel pump, fuel filter, steel line up to the firewall then back to a 3/8" fuel line to the new regulator then a small piece to the carb, which is also brand new.

The car has 1600 miles on it already. In Florida I try to take it out once a week. The 1/2" spacer helped last year but this just seemed to have just come out of nowhere. I did look at the sight glass on the front and rear of the carb and the floats seem high. I never adjusted them when I pulled it from the box but maybe I can drop them a little to see if that helps.

I'll also get in there after that and clean the needle and seat.

I mentioned the tach going to zero but I may have had the clutch in pumping the gas, I can't remember for sure. I haven't ruled out the ignition problem yet.
