RE: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one...

Do you have a Holley Carb with a vacuum choke? If so, check the diaphragm. Same for the vacuum advance on the distributor. You don't have to disassemble them. Put a piece of vacuum hose on and (OK I have to be crude here) --- suck. Does it leak?   Larry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Dan McIntosh Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 1:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one... I did notice that one of the terminals on the cap was kinda loose.... I was down to around 1/8 of a tank of gas.. who know how accurate the gauge is..... so I filled it up yesterday, but haven't been able to road test it yet...   I will definitely check for the cracked or loose fuel line... my car gets bounced around a bit, I could see some things working themselves loose after awhile..   thanks for the tips!   Dan McIntosh Pavement Scraping 1964 Impala SS http://www.lowriderimpala.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Diane Peppin To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 4:46 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] fixed old problem, found a new one... Have you checked for vapor lock? Do you have a carb isolator? Lines too close to the manifold? Cracked distributor that acts up when warm?...cracked fuel lines near the tank? Mine did the same thing, found a cracked rubber fuel line. Its fixed now. ;-Diane
