Hi,
Config: 383cui with Edelbrock AVS carb, headers, electronic ign., recently converted to a 4speed.
I have problems getting the engine to start. That means, if I drove the car, put it away for let's say a week, it takes real long to get her to start. But...it also happens when she's parked for about an hour (so that excludes the hot engine problem?). I have to use the pedal to help...
If I shut her down, wait for 5 mins and start again, she immidiately starts, without using the pedal.
Also, when pushed to the limit, she holds back all of a sudden (>4500rpm)
Recently, she "dieseled" (didn't stop running directly after shutting down) and we adjusted the mixture screws on the carb.
So...hope I'm being complete 'n all...anyone have a clue?
