Any help would be nice. I am getting no fuel to the carb. I changed the fuel pump even though it is getting suction. The new fuel pump is giving me the same results. All of the sudden, out of the blue, I started my 68, got about 2 miles down the road and she stalled. I waited about 5 mins. and she started, for another 2 miles. This continued till I got her home. I changed the filter, no avail. then the pump, no avail, and now she won't start at all. Yes, the car does have gas. Now, I opened the line to see if fuel would pump out from the pump itself, and whaala, nothing. I would say vapor lock if it was hot, but she ran fine in the 110 degree weather in Tucson, Az. Now it's in the 40-50 range and no dice. Any help would be nice. It is one of two cars me and my lady use for work, so I have 1.5 days to get it started again. Thanks

Ditto the pick up screen. Any rust on the old filter?
