Well I got it back late this afternoon from my mechanics. The last few days they fixed the tranny leak, replaced the electronic ignition and replaced the fuel pump. Picked it up started like a champ took it back to work parked for a hour, took it home fired right up no problem again drove fine. Stayed home for 30 minutes fired right up then went to dinner ran perfect. After dinner came out fired right up but died after 10 seconds or so. Smelled like it was flooded waited ten minutes same thing just turns over and over. Looked around could see gas waited another hour with the air filter top off to let air in tried again same thing. Called a tow service he wanted to look and thought the gas was leaking all around the carb. I could see gas on both sides of the manifold and dripping from the linkage but couldn't see from where or why. Any ideas? The tow driver thought the carb gasket might be blown out but I have no idea why that would be he suggested the new fuel pump had more pressure then it could handle??? No idea personally what does it sound like to all you here?
Thanks for the info and help. PG
