Im trying to help a friend with a 72 Duster with a slant six and a holley 1920 one barrell(stock and slow).
Anyhow the car wont idle good, the carb has been rebuilt twice it was cleaned in solvent by me and a friend that used to be a Dodge mechanic, the float set properly with the little gauge included in the kit, fuel pump and filter are new and working. If I take out the idle screw and squirt carb cleaner in there in comes out of the idle air bleed so I think the idle circut is clean.It will start up run well for a few minutes and then start to die and then stall like its out of gas but then will start back up and do the same.Is there something on this car im missing ? I dont have much experiance with these motors or these cars.Is there a vent someplace that might be clogged ? Could it still be the carb?
Thanks fellas!
