Is this feed-back carb or fuel injected? How long since a tune-up? If computer controlled, check for applicable trouble codes. To check for codes, use a jumper wire between the A & B terminals at the datalink connector. Turn key just till the dash lites come on, no further. The mil on the dash starts flashing, you count the flashes to get the codes. Your looking for two digit codes.

Its not fuel injected. And I just replaced all wires plugs water outlet tube gaskets and the rotor cap. It worked fine for a month then slowly started dieing. So about 3 months since tune up. And thank you very much.

If you have 02 sensors in the exhaust, it is computer controlled. Check for codes.

Its not computer controlled no sensors. My old carb it would backfire through the carb and shoot out gas? Any other ideas?

The new carb on it is a choke carb so could the distributer have to be changed because its not advanced timing.

Check spark timing. Check cylinder compression. I'm about out of ideas?

I'll try that and so is my dad and i. But Thanks for your time and help

No problem, let us know what you find.

Timing chain had jumped on me. fixed that then ran like a charm. Thanks for ur help haven't been on in a while haha.

I'm glad you got it going your way.
