Hi All...
I'm still putzing with my 1963. Swapped out the distributor because the original had way too much up-down play in the shaft.. dwell would fluctuate as much a 5 degrees. While she idles great and sounds a bit meaner, this did not solve the loss of power issue.. It's basically worse.. I can't drive a block under any sort of acceleration without it bucking and loosing power.
I pulled the new gas filter and it was fine. I found that strainer Stuart mentioned in my AFB and actually removed it, but it was clean. Took the car out and had the same result.
I'm going to drain the tank and remove the sender to see what is there. Assuming that is the problem, I can certainly clean the sender and get it back in the question is how do folks clean out the tank?
If anyone can shed some light on how to do this, I would appreciate it!
Thanks!!
Joel
