The 428 has the Comp cam 294H cam with roller lifters, could the roller lifters be failing when the car is at idle(bleeding down), weak coil,...etc? The motor was running fantastic before the problem started, I was told that hydraulic roller lifters start to fail at around 3000-5000 miles (I have 4700 since the rebuild). I havn't had the chance to go over the motor and planned to do it this weekend, anyone had a similar issue?

Its usually some gunk in the fuel mixture screws. Do what he does at the start of this video with an air hose and this trick works on all brand of carbs that have mixture screws. I fixed 2 old Ford Trucks that would constantly stall and it worked even on stock rotorcraft brand carbs. Let mw know if this cured the problem.
