This old piece of shit has been sitting for a long time,the engine internally is fine.
It will idle ok for a second,then surge up or down..sometimes to the point of stalling sometimes not..under throttle anywhere from 1/8th to 3/4 it almost doesn't respond at all. If I tap and tease it to get it rolling then it will pick up somewhat,but still hesitating,cutting out nearly dead,but still running. If i give it it full throttle it will bog for about 2 or 3 seconds then rev enough to drive,but still prolly half the power it should have..I've cleaned the throttle bodies with some ether,added fresh gas..anyone else had this problem..Just trying to zero in on what exactly it might be before i start throwing expensive parts at it.
