The vacuum line from the carb to the vac adv is on the ported vacuum as u speak. I must have made it difficult to understand when i wrote about it last. The choke i kno is working correctly. I have played with it when the engine is cold till it gets warm and it works no problems. I agree that i may need a carb rebuild..... its been at least 6-7 years since this one has seen any new parts...
And the tranny is either a th250 or th350... i cant remember which it is.... same pan....
i spoke with a mechanic at a transmission shop, who was nice enough to actually get on the phone and talk my problem over with me. He told me that I wont need a transmission rebuild.. and that it sounds like a misfire and ign problem.... Since i have changed everything from spark plugs though the dist rotor... i am going to head torwards the radio cap, and the ign module.... We will see what it leads too.
