Thanks for everyone's info. Running again. Put on new fuel pump and fuel lines, and adjusted timing a little more. What puzzles me is the inconsistent operation. Drive for a few minutes, stopped at red light and it idles real low and sometimes dies. Stop somewhere for a few minutes. Runs fine and then idles fast at a light. Everytime I start it, it seems to idle differently sometimes high sometimes low.

Thinking about switching to a weber 34 DGEC carb. What da ya think?

Also not sure how to adjust the choke so that I don't have to hold the gas pedal to warm it up. Is this easy to do.
