Okay if you guys can help a bit I would appreciate it.
got a co-worker who has a 1973 Ford Pick-up Got a new Motor for it a couple years back a 302 V8. Well just 1 week ago it was running perfectley fine when all of a sudden he got off the freeway and there was no power. The only way to get the truck going is to feather the gas lightly slowley build up momentum and then it will start going. Not sure what the problem is at first I thought maybe he blew a head gasket but he said there was no smoke at all. If anybody has some suggestions on what the problem could be please let me know Thanks
Here are a few things he told me:
~Just had a tune up new wires, plugs rotor exetra
~New Edelbrock 4 barrel car 3 months old
~Played with the timming a bit and that only made it worse
also let me know if there is any other info you guys need in helping to figure out the problem
