Helping a friend get the bugs out of his 73 23' GMC that has a turbo. An old GMCer buy the name of Westerfelt(sp) more than likely installed the turbo. The issue at hand is when the turbo kicks in it has power, than bogs down, than jumps forward and bogs down again. This also is apparent when climbing a long hill. My belief is the turbo sucks out all the gas in the carb reservoir and causing the bogging down. Fuel pump is an electric Carter 4070 so it has the capacity to keep the carb reservoir full at 72 gph.

Any ideas on how to get this issue solved so we can take to the street races on Saturday night! Laughing
