Have a rebuilt 318 in my 65 Coronet. Been fighting a stalling problem for some time now. I can drive it just fine and can sense when it's going to stall and will adjust fuel pedal accordingly. But when my wife drives it she stalls it often. I can live with it, but she's going to fry the starter, so trying to figure out best way to fix this.
Factory cast iron intake with 2 barrel carb nothing special. Engine rebuilders put an rv cam in it. Transmissions and Torque converter have been rebuilt. Not sure what the stall is because they rebuilt it.
When it stalls is anytime you get off the throttle and get back onto the throttle, like when coming to a stop sign, or a corner. Usually a few quick short stabs at the fuel pedal with correct it or put in neutral.
It starts and runs at idle just fine, I've tried turning idle up, but then your having to keep your foot on the brake to keep it from driving away. Crusies great.
I run all premium non ethanol fuel. Carter carb OE type carb, it's been rebuilt once and the replaced with reman and no change. Eletrionic pertronix ignition. Tried many different timing settings and carb settings.
Ideas, input suggestions, things to check, anything is appreciated
