Thought I had found why I was getting fuel starvation.  I would be driving along and the engine wanten to die---flip the acc and pull the choke and it wold fire up again---did this over and over to nurse the car home.

Since the fuel pup was operating as it should, I figured it must be in a carb.  

Took the tops off the fuel bowl.  Rea was full of gas-----front only 1/2 way up.

Looked at the Grose jet and it seemed to be sticking===pulled it cleaned it----and broke the tip off.

Had another original jet so installed it---thought that was it.

Started it up and same symptoms.

What next??  Anyn ideas?
