Parked my car. Next day won't start.
Did the Un flood procedure with motor oil and still wouldn't start. So then pull started it with my truck and got running but sounds terrible and won't stay running and has no power. Wtf?
I don't know what to do? And I also installed new plugs.

 

Stuck seals? Did steam pour from the exhaust? Hopefully not a stuck seal or bad coolant seal. Check the float window in the carb. Could just be insufficiant fuel or time for a carb rebuild.

 

Carbs rebuilt and ran perfect couple days ago. I don't know about steam but smoked a lot due to the oil. I did notice a small amount of coolant pooled up in top off intake. Could a bad intake gasket make it run that bad? I assumed it would just suck all of air and make it rev up?

 

The pooling water is probably from a bad intake o ring. Yes, this can cause it to run this bad. Its an easy fix. The leaking water can get into the intake and foul the plugs.

 

Ok well I'll have to change that for sure. But I even threw another set of plugs in after I unfolded it and ran the same. You would think it would be able to run for a minute before the plugs fouled? But it won't even start on it own the only way I can get it to start is to pull start it with my truck! Crank it all day and it won't fire.

 

Man, talk about a blast from the FC3S.com days.

Good to see you are still around and kicking.

What was up on the lift that you saved?

Hope all is well and the Foundation business is going well for you.
