I’ve had the same problem, except my car would stall while driving. After an hour or so of sitting it would start right up. Very frustrating at times to the point of where I stoped driving the car. Thinking something was getting hot and not making a connection somewhere in the distributor...

Hmm, I got to look at it more. When pull down on the throttle assembly it will decrease RPM, so something is making it open up more…..

Update-adjust the front floats and got the car to idle. Then when it warmed up idle speed jumped up to 1100rpm, backed down the idle screw with no effect. Gasket on the needle seat assembly is old and hard, so thinking that might be letting fuel by thus increasing RPM. I’ll replace the gaskets...

Thanks, was thinking I probably need to re adjust the float level. Would removing the carb inlet filters have any effect on this?

7psi. I’ll check for debris. Thanks!

Thanks, I adjusted it about 50 miles ago. I’ll re check it. Think this could be failing when it gets hot and may need to replace it

Only have the carb that’s on it.

update, unplugged the jumper on the BR and took it out for a quick 5 min drive. Came home and pulled in the garage to check and top off the tranny fluid while the car was idiling in N then it dies and won’t fire back up. Took some readings with the key on Battery-12.26v BR is at 11.26 & 6.8...

67 coronet. Throttle return springs is a a generic double spring from summit.

Yep same thing happened to me years ago, more like a pinging sound in the exhaust. Backed off the timing and all is good.

Coil instructions are stating to by pass BR when running a MSD box or run a BR if running points style ignition. Think the ECU substitutes MSD box. We’ll that got pretty hot, now I’m here seeking advice…
