First Generation Firebird-L Mailing List ......................................................................... Mark, I would pull the fuel line at the carb while it is bogging down. It sounds to me like you have a fuel pump that is taking a dump. I used to have a 76 cj5 and I had a similar problem.

Hi Guys, thanks for the suggestions, I am going to check the fuel flow at 4000rpm to make sure it is not running out of fuel. The current Holley is brand new, so I don't think it is a carb issue. I will also check/replace the coil/dist, and the timing. I don't know how to check the ignition module, thus hopefully the other repairs will work. The biggest symptom seems to be the random high speed cutout - could this be caused by a defective vacuum advance? I'll let you know what I find out.
