Stock 79' 12A high RPM power range problem
Hey, I'm Ryan and I have an stock 79' FB, it's ran alright except for one strange problem with the engine struggling to meet 5500 RPM's, sometimes even 4500 RPM's. I've read the forums and I haven't seen any similar problems. at first I though there was too much fuel getting through and choking it out, and it could be the problem, but I've had numerous mechanics adjust and readjust the carb and it always ends up the same. I'll admit as I've posted before, I do not know a lot about these cars so any help would be great. Thanks for anyone that helps or try's, hope you all have a nice summer.

have you changed the fuel filter? as a matter of fact, when was your last tuneup? have you checked the fuel pump itself and also the consistency of it's power supply?

i was suggesting you should consider re-wiring it so you could benefit from newer, better wires and relay. also, it would go directly to the battery. there are a few threads that can guide you.
what about the tuneup? |
