here's the situation i have a chev 327 mounted in my ride and... i just replaced the inlet manifold gaskets. then i started her up set the timing again. let her idle for a while like 5 min to make sure all was OK then the engine just up and cut out like i had turned off the ignition.... so I pumped the carb once or twice saw the carb pump worked cranked it over it fired ran a few revs and died again... and that's where I'm at ...cant get it to idle or run... but if i pump the gas pedal it fires and runs a few revs... i need some help here i am supposed to go for a ride with some friends this week end and right now I'm kind of in a hurry and i know i gotta just be calm and take my time...
