Just got my first slant six

get a vacuum gauge on that and just watch it. Also , after it dies, pull the carb bowl and see what comes out. (does it have a float level port?) a new fuel filter is cheap. You could even run a IV source of gas (gravity feed) and see if it idles past the 5 minute mark. Inverted 1 liter with a 5/16 hose out the bottom and a vent hole hanging from the hood latch...and a fire extinguisher. An uber cheap setup and "keep it Mopar" would be to add a Mopar ECU to the POINTS set up, thats right, tickle it with points!
