Re: Correct spark plug gap
I put fresh fuel in, gapped the plugs at .035, and added a pressure regulator in the fuel line between the electric pump and the carb. It starts quick runs smooth but still tends to die when I stop at a signal. I suspect the needle and seat is gummed up and it just floods out when making a quick stop.
Cleaning the carb and replacing the needle and seat will come next. I have faith that will solve the problem.
Glenn suggested getting rid of electronic ignition. I can't say as I agree with that. Before this problem my car never ran as smooth or started so quick as with the electronic ignition. I suspect he just has too many other gadgets tapping into his power source for the electronic ignition. I am running First Street Ignition from Tulsa OK, and they make a strong point of advising only a dedicated power source so as not to interfere with the electronic ignition.
