340 has me stumped

It’s going to be difficult and time consuming but youre going to need to do the diagnostics WHILE you’re having the problem. Drive it until the stalling starts to happen and try to keep the problem “alive”. Check anything and everything you can during the stumble. A few things come to mind, heat related electronics failures (coil, ballast, etc) or fuel pickup sock clogging, Both common. You tried three carter style (edlebrock) carbs, all of those have fuel boiling/percolating issues. If you can try a Holley style carb.


The pro's know their stuff!

I have had to do a few things to get my stock 340 to run right

#1 I am quite sure the avs2 is as vulnerable as my stock avs 5lbs of fuel pressure TOPS and as stated in many build posts dial your fuel pressure in !st then your float level//to much and you can push the needle off of the seat-stumble might be flooding..

2) 93 + better gas with lucas octane booster

3) a cool carb spacer plate , insulated carb to fuel pump line, insulated fuel filter...

4) good plug wires and pay attention to the routing

// a holley is worse than an avs on heat soak, those big bowls grab Alot of heat off of the intake...// I ditched mine.. MA mopar had it right with the thermoquad !!!

not saying that it is but I haven't had any problem with my pertronix dual point conversation
