I have a 1973 Plymouth Scamp when a slant six in it. I am trying to get the motor running right and have gotten real close but here is what is is doing and hopefully someone can help me.
We rebuilt the carb as it run rough and didn't get the timing set right. It would idle fine and run good but when you started to take off it would hesitate and or die. Adjusted timing and got that fixed kinda. Now when you first crank it and drive it it will run fine. However when you turn it off for a few minutes ) getting gas , food,etc. and start it up and take off it goes back to doing the same thing along with running like it is surging or has bad gas.
Any suggestions one where to start looking?
