Default Re: 39 coupe

Thanks guys. I tried pulling choke when it was happening and it made no difference.

Yesterday I took both carbs off. They were rebuilt by Charlie a few years ago. They had some black particles in the bowl. I pulled out float needle and the fuel mixture screws. Shot them with carb cleaner and then air. It’s all back together today I’ll tune them and test drive.

If it still occurs, I’m thinking my next step I’d pull distro and change points and rotor.

Prior to all this, I did do mmo in tank and down carbs. I can always do it again.

The wire from battery to coil. Please tell me more. Is it merely adding a jumper from positive (neg battery term). Also if it corrects issue, what does that tell me.
