After the car warms up,i take it out on the road,its good for about ten minutes driving at around 20 kmph then it splutters and conks out,ive put a new carb kit though the problems still there,fuel filters are new too, any ideas ? my mind boggles,the car hes sat for 8 months through the winter though this problem is over a year old...thanks guys for any solving answers
Try looking into your timing of the engine is it properly timed is you distributor good if you have passed out 160k in miles try replacing the distributor system and get the engine properly timed
if that doesnt work look at your fuel pump if it is electircal and it doesnt hum when the key is in the on pos... then replace that you should be ok from there make sure your oils and plugs are good and play close attention to you ignition plug wires good luck
