Reply to "Start-up and acceleration"

duz185The 3331 album

It takes this many cranks or pumps if the car has been sitting for 2 or more days. The engine cranks very well. Great starter and great battery. The car is a 72 pre-L with a ballast resistor but has the wire between the coil and the relay. I don't mind pumping before I start it, so long as I know there's nothing wrong.

It also idles very well and only hesitates when you push down on the gas from idle. At higher RPMs, the engine has no problem accelerating (thankfully!). Its actually a 1406 600 CFM carburator. For what its worth, here's a pic:
