This is so annoying. I've been tuning up here and there but this problem has me stumped.
The points are freshly cleaned with a little bit of sand paper and well adjusted. I've opened up the carb (Weber 34 ICH) and didn't find any debris. All in all the thing idles just perfectly around 700 rpm, until I go for a drive.
Driving along, sometimes I can feel it missing. When this happens and you hold the throttle and rpm at just before overrun (not really accelerating or decelerating) you can feel the motor bucking and missing. When that bucking condition happens I know that it will stall out when I get to the next stop sign. If it doesn't stall out then it will be running terribly as I'm two footing it to keep it going.
When it does stall out, I'll restart it and it will run perfectly again. Well until I start driving it again.
Any thoughts from the group?
