    What is your best gueass on this problem.
    Runs starts easy runs well for a variable number of miles then starts to sputter no power nearly dies but will idle choking helps a little but not much then all of a sudden will take off and go great for a while.
    Carb kit put in, new fuel pump and added a fuel filter, which it never had originally.
    Does it sound like a fuel or electrical problem
    Any thoughts
    Thanks:'(

    Could be ignition condensor going south. They start getting weird from heat when they are starting to fail. Might be time for points, condensor, cap & rotor....

    It sounds like a choke deal but I've seen the same thing happen with a bad condensor.
