The filter is not clogged and there is plenty of gas (psi unknown) getting
to the carb, if I can find a fuel guage I'll check the pressure.
Due to the way Chevy distributors mesh with the oil pump drive shaft it
is impossible to put it in a tooth off. It will either go in right or
180 degrees off.
Something I did find out was that the float was sticking and causing the
carb to flood. After I changed it the engine did run better but still has
problems with the gas pedal being floored.
Thanks for your help. :)
