77 F30 engine stall

Post by Patriciamarie »

I'm having trouble with the port engine, when hot the engine will shut down the closer you get base idle and occasionally pop through the intake under acceleration , I'm wondering about coil breaking down or timing advance issues, any ideas.

Stall is likly a carb issue maybe adjustment . Other issue could be carb but could be in the advance .
