SOLVED: Thanks for all the insight guys (and sorry it took me so long to get back). Found that rear bowl was flooding within 10 seconds of run time. Pulled bowls - blue gaskets on both sides of the metering blocks had starting coming apart, leaving trash. Cleaned bowls/jets/everything and...

10:1. It runs well in premium.

Thanks for the explanation on the Rich/lean condition with a misfire. That makes sense. Would you mind explaining the bold piece above one more time? And i did replace the power valve, but that was obviously not it.

I'm looking for the same info. Ever figure anything out?

Hey guys, Finally got my '64 Belvedere on the road (and strip) this summer. For the first few months, the gas gauge worked perfectly with a normal needle sweep. Then one day, a full tank began showing as "half tank" on the gauge - the needle straight down. From that "half tank" position, the...

PM sent!

HAHA! Good question. I'm just looking for a good used set - preferably one that has all it's teeth and doesn't whine like 5 year old at bed time.

​Preferably a set that isn't crap. :grin:
