Okay so there's a hose off the bottom of the fuel pump that's long and seems as tho it's a vaccuum advance or something, does that just lay on the side of the engine or is there a nipple for it?

So I changed the oil again, unpluged the jumper wire, put my original relay back in, pump turns on, I guess it just goes in spurts, but now I can't get it over 6k. I'm just gunna let it idle at 2K for a long *** time today, hopefully it's just risidual water somewhere

Already chaged the fuel and put 110 octane in it. Made sure the whole tank was bone dry. Took fuel line off from carb rail and dried that too. I'm guessing it's a float issue.

did you drain the fuel OUT of the carbs? when water hangs up in there you have to pretty much run a water drying chemical in your fuel. btw 110 octane isnt going to help at all.

Well how would I go about doing that? Basically taking the carbs apart correct?
