Hi,
I put a Holley re-built carb on my 65 coupe w/ 200 CID engine. Now that it is getting hot outside, I'm having trouble keeping the car running when I come up to a stop light. This is only a problem after I've driven it for about ten minutes and got it good and warm.
When the car comes to a stop, it dies. When the rpms are up while driving along, then it shifts and lowers the rpms, the car dies. When I pull in to my driveway, the car dies, when I shiift from park to drive or reverse, the car dies. I've just about had it.
I've adjusted the mixture & timing by ear to no avail. I adjusted the timing with a light and still no luck.
Please give me your advice, I'm about to flip out!
Thanks for your time,
John Thomas
