Took 'er for a ride yesterday and after about 5 miles, light traffic and about 60 degrees, she started to die on acceleration. Switched on the electric fuel pump and problem solved.
I have a fresh (maybe 200 miles) Patterson rebuilt carb, new lines and senders, filters, clean tanks, etc.
The mechanical fuel pump is the original (54000mi).
Whaddya think, should I replace it? Or maybe something else?
Thanks.
