OK.  Full tank of non-ethanol gas.  Replaced the fuel filter & fuel pump, cleaned the carb inlet screens and checked the float valves.  All new copper fuel lines about two years ago - SAME PROBLEM.

WHAT NOW ???

Gentlemen,

The BJ7 has been up on jack stands for about 2 months while I did transmission work. Upon completion, the engine was a little had to start, but finally started.  On the road test, the engine would not rev above 2,200 to 2,400 RPM - light bucking and missing.  I have checked ignition - dwell & timing and fuel seems OK.  Almost feels like the mechanical advance is stuck.  But I'm stalled.  Anyone had a similar problem ???
