I got into my 1981 el camino the other night and she died on my while coming to a stop. My car no longer would stay running without really feathering the gas. I really had to baby it to get home. If I gave it gas, it would just drag really bad. When I got home, I sprayed some carburetor cleaner...

Hello again everyone! I'm looking for tips on a new carburetor. I'm getting rid of my old 650 double pumper holley and going for a 650 Thunder series AVS Edelbrock. My holley had been rebuilt many times and is 20+ years old. Also sat in the garage where I found the car for 15 year. It loves to...
