So, my car has always had this problem and I have been fussing and fighting it for some time. When accelerating from a dead stop if I give it more than 1/4 throttle the gas pedal will get sucked to the floor and will not return to the idle position for 5 seconds. During this time I loose oil pressure, IE the idiot light comes on. I have slowly been eliminating problem component like; carb, vacuum advance, ignition(didn't think it would change anything), throttle cable, linkage springs. I have normal vacuum and no manifold or carb leakage. So I am not quite sure what is going on... any suggestions?
