Well the old gal is acting up again. It had plenty of power then
acted like it was fuel starved. Was real bad on up hill pulls. Let
it sit while I was driven back home for tools and parts. Also, I
checked the fuel pump prior to leaving and it was so to hot to handle.
Came back, pulled the plugs, number 1, 3 and 4 looked perfect, nice
tan color, number 2 was a bit blackened but not bad. Checked the fuel
pump and it was nice and cool and thumping away. Did not pull the
fuel lines to see if fuel was coming through. Also, made sure it was
full of gas. Fired it up and off we went without a hitch, got about
two miles down the road and it started acting as if it were loosing
power again. I would down shift and it would take off again for a few
yards or so as if nothing was wrong and then chock back down again. I
limped on home like that for about 14 miles. Shut it off while I
opened the garage doors and it fired up and pulled up the hill to the
garage with no problem. Checked the coil and the fuel pump for heat.
Fuel pump was way to hot to handle but pumping like it should and the
coil was nice and cool.
Any suggestions.
Thanks!
