Hi guys,
I´m not sure if I have a problem or not...
My car drives quite OK, but sometimes when I´m just cruisin in low speed for a while, and just want to accelerate firm, she kind of "hick" first before she sets off. Nearly dies. Feels a bit embarrasment to be honest. So I installed connectors for Lambda sond on the exhaust near the manifold so we can measure if ( and where ) she is rich or/and lean. Ordered a carburator calibration kit and played around with springs and needles and mesure the difference all the time. My engine is now pretty much perfect in all idle, acceleration or cruise mode.
But: When the engine is on, and regardless of idle or playing with the throttle, I can see that there is very little fuel in my fuel filter. Looks nearly empty as a matter of fact.
Can this be due to some problem with the Fuel Pump? Should I buy a new one or check anything else? Any help here is much appreciated. Please have in mind that my engine is a 1964 390.
