I noticed on my last couple of runs that as I slowed down at the end of the track that the motor wants to quit as I make the turn off the track. Any ideas? Could I be running low on fuel pressure? Also on the return road the engine seems to surge a bit. I tried keeping the rpm at the same point on the return road and it the surge was quite noticeable.Thanks, Brian ------------------ 351c 4v clsd heads 60'1.619 1/8 [email protected] 1/4 [email protected]

Sounds like the float bowls are draining out on your carb. Need to look into your fuel delivery system. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator/ non 65-66 Mustang owner sensitivity co-ordinator NHRA/IHRA/SRA/MCA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00, '01, & '02 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Part time secret agent license #0089 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

I'm using a Holley blue with 3/8" fuel line? Before I do anything I will check my float level tomorrow.
