Re: [T3] FI woes.....

Bryan,

With all of the other suggestions made from others on the list I would also
add checking all of your vacuum lines. I had the same conditions as you
described and found that most of my vacuum lines were questionable and
caused a lot of weird symptoms. Especially the vacuum hoses that go from
the intake manifold to the distributor advance and retard inlets.

Hope this helps you out,

Rick

I've almost got it , ,, I think.
    My 71 square is almost running right.   Sometimes though it will stall
when you come to a stop , some times it will start right back up , other
times it will not, some times you have to crank and crank and then it
starts.
    Also some times when you are at a stop and you start to accelerate it
will briefly bog down and act like it is gonna stall. Half the time you have
to feather the gas to get it to go , the other half of the time it will fix
itself.
    Also.......... When cruising on the interstate between 70 and 80 it will
start to buck and drag then  run good for a while and then start bucking and
dragging and then run good for a while and the same the same

Thanks in advance
