I think I’m go’na do what Jay Chigago’s go’na do convert to manual choke!! THANX FOR ALL THE INPUT

thank all of you for the input! choke is electric, I rebuilt carb and coil, condenser and ballast tested good. now you see what mean by at wits end��www.jalopyjournal.net♂️

new choke

talk to holley that was there recommendation? and it’s not getting flooded new plugs and they look good. checked coil and as long as I keep my foot on the gas I just keep it running till the warms up a bit and then it’ll run perfect. should have included that in my original post

fuel Pressure is 7psi disconnected fuel line and fuel is definitely coming out. This has been an ongoing issue?! rebuilt carburetor, changed fuel filters and ck’d for vacuum leaks.

I have a Holley 390 on an 8ba it will start then dies? I'm at my wits end! I've tried everything I can think of and it's still doing the same thing. Need some help from you Guru's out there:)

this is coming out of my gas tank, can anyone tell me what it is and what causes it?

8ba 12volt mallory Replace wires, spark plugs, coil compression test and went through and cleaned all grounds. what am I missing?

I have a weak spark I can’t figure out? so , I’m at the point of fishing for ideas!

thoughts on where to ground battery? engine or frame?

what's interesting is that it doesn't do it all the time? rpm in gear 750 in neutral rpm 1000 and when i put it in reverse it BANGS?

No leaks that I can find

i’ve done that to!

coming to stop car stalls! thinking converter stall speed to low? has anybody run across this issue and how did you fix it?

not knowing much about flatheads and learning as I go, can someone identify this hole in intake manifold? looks like a vacuum source and possibly even a vacuum leak if not being used? and if so best way to seal?
