issues...first one to solve this gets good karma...

my truck has something new thats wrong. kinda. when i step on the gas it will seem like it wants to stall and it has issues getting up to speed. when its at idle it wont stall and i can rev the engine. but when there is a load on the engine it does this. thinking the fuel pump? filter has been changed. idk what else it could be. any ideas.

1979 360 carb.

Possibly a carb problem. Trash in it, sticking needle/seat, float, accelerator pump. Bad carb & bad fuel pump share alot of the same sympthoms.

ONLY UNDER LOAD / l,d say a DIST problem / vacuum advance hooked up wrong / weak or broken advance springs

Does OK at idle & without load so you can rule out the accelerator pump.

Could be a weak fuel pump, leaky float or sticking needle. Could also be elctrical...

i know there is so many things it could be. i ended up taking it to a shop and he was saying that the carb was just a little to old and was breaking and sticking on me. so i hope that ends it. i was originally thinking distributor problem. but the timing checked out perfect. so idk. ill let you know.
