It's been running tits for the past couple weeks ever since i had a mechanic work on it. it ran perfectly fine once it got up to temp and all is well in the world.

Now, I put on my new wheels, take it for a drive yesterday with no problems AT ALL. This mroning I get in, go for a cruise around the neighborhood and it does cool goin one way then i hit the next street in 3rd gear and it jerks like a coke head goin through withdrawls. Now it won't crank. I thought it was gas, so went and got 10 bux worth and imagine that......that didnt fix it.

We tried to pop the clutch and it did nothing. it would crank it but bog down and die. it wouldnt stay running. fuel filter is new, tank was drained and coated and carb isnt the problem. wtf is the deal here??? did i fuck the motor, tranny, rear, what could it be?

operator error! didnt the guy who fixed it the 1st time drain and clean the tank? sounds like some of the water/junk was left in the lines and made it rounds again. sometimes when you clean a tank you will need to change the fuel filter a couple times to assure all the shit is out of the system. you can also unhook the main fuel line at the carb and tank and blow compressed air through it evertime you cange the filter (if in facts its dirty). it also could foul out the plugs when it makes its rounds again. i cleaned my tank on my aired 62 falcon wagon and had to change the filter a few times... the filter on your toy is at the gas tank right on the frame rail.

i guess ol dude didnt do his job fully. the filter was disgusting and had rust all in it. im pretty sure the gas isnt the best gas in the world now either. guess ill go have to have a talk with him.
