There was only a gallon or 2 in the tank so i just added some 93 to the tank, about 2 1/2 gallons and ran it.

probably my own bone head mistake.

I was in a hurry to listen to it run after all the work I've put into it so far, probably mistake number 2. LOL

I gotta chime in here and say make sure you always store it with a FULL tank of gas for storage along with a good fuel stabilizer. If you don't thats how rust can start inside the tank.

If the car has been sitting for 8 months and you didn't add a gas stabalizer, you've probably got some bad (varnish) gas in your lines. Did you add gas before you tried to start it or did you have the same gas over the 8 month period?

This is my problem, thank's for the help everyone.:)

I have trash in the line's-carb's and the old gas mixed with the new did indeed gum thing's up a bit.

Have a helpfull hand on getting that SU rebuild dvd, and I'm going to clean the tank, line's, and do a quick rebuild on the carb's for good measure.

Then tune.

This should fix my problem I think.

I also noticed my fuel pressure gauge gave out too.

Probably got gumed up too, it was a cheap POS anyway, so is the regulator, there the great old Mr. Gasket one's. Should of called there brand Mr. Crap-it.

Going to replace those too.

Everything I've ever saw from them is garbage I think, not accurate, and cheap made.

This stuff came with the car. So the owner before me must have had worst skill's than me, had to replace or reroute a bunch of stuff, wire's, line's, etc.

Getting the bug's worked out now though, next stop is the clutch system.:stupid:
