Well after checking things I decided to put a Holley carb on to see if this was it. Runs perfect now so it's the carb. I have rebuilt alot of holleys. I have a few quadrajet carbs as anytime I had problems I swapped them out for Holley & never had issues. BUT I want to keep this car original with this quadrajet carb. Anyone rebuild 1 ? Or rebuilt Holley & quadrajet. Are they a pain or a pain compared to holleys? should I just take it somwhere? Can't believe this carb got messed up after taking extra precaution to not turn upside down & mess float up,etc..
