Hi gents,
It's been 3 months now since I'm looking for the reason why my 383 Duster is stalling when I brake in "Drive".
Most of the time it happens when I make a big acceleration and then stop on the side of the road, braking until I fully stop.
I feel like the difference in RPMs between idle and idle in "Drive" changes getting bigger when the car gets hot.
I set a total timing advance of 39°, with 19° of initial timing.
Mastervac is unplugged. (intake manifold is plugged)
Carb is new (QF 650 SS) (float level is good),idle mixture is hard to set as behaviour is unstable.
Coil is new
Dizzy is almost new (MSD ready-to-run)
When the car stalls, the few minutes after it's pretty hard to start it again.
I just set up a gap of 0.055 to my spark plugs, idle sounds more regular but the car is still ending with stalling. When I unscrewed my spark plugs, #3, 4, 5, 6 were wet.
I wonder if all the power needed goes to the spark plugs.
When I changed my distributor to the msd one, I linked the constant +12v to the ignition switched one to jump the ballast resistor. Is it right?
I'm getting lost, and the thing is that there are not a lot of skilled guys over here in France in local shops regarding american oldtimers.. Thank you for your help guys.
