I need help. Here is the situation: My 1600 starts & idles fine. I can drive it about one mile with no problems...matter of fact it runs great. Then at about the one mile mark (sometimes less, someti

I've seen a similar problem frequently on older cars, particularly if they have ever been in storage for any period of time. Condensation inside the fuel tank causes rust, which slowly flakes off. Th

Here's one thing to check (though not the easiest!): Make sure that the fuel outlet pipe in the gas tank was not blocked or restricted by any slushing compound that may have been used to seal the ins

Actually, this sounds exactly like a problem I had once with a faulty coil - when heat built up under the hood, the coil resistance would increase to the point that it quit firing until it cooled of

I agree with Jim, Check to see if the coil is HOT when it quits. if so, check that the ballast resister is wired correctly. I have seen a ballast resister type coil installed without the resister gi

Once it cuts out, try disconnecting the fuel line before the carbs and feed the line into a small bucket. (KEEP A FIRE EXTINGUISHER CLOSE BY). Have a friend try cranking the engine, and watch to see

The symptoms you describe are similar to my own problem three years ago. It was definitely a fuel problem: collapsed interior of the rubber fuel line delivering to the carbs. Float bowls would run dr

while you're there, check the resistor and its connections- I've had problems with the spade lugs getting corroded... Toby
