Unhappy willys Overland

Hi I have a willys Overland 1922, the car starts and Idles fine, however as soon as you apply any gas then the cars starts to loose power and will either stop or try to stop. it will not allow the car to move from a stand still. i have replaced the gas in the tank and let it idle for 20 -30 mins to let new gas flow through but still no luck. i have replaced the spark plugs with new also but no luck?

help?

thanks
Nick

Re: willys Overland

Yikes an old car like this, dirty carb, if it has a fuel pump, another issue, if gravity fed, dirt in the lines, improper ign settings, gotta start from scratch
