So I bought an old 96 gtx with the 787 in it. The first night with some new plugs it ran awesome. The next morning it ran good. Then in the afternoon the trouble started. So I hit the google button and found out about the grey fuel lines. So I replaced all the fuel lines. I test the fuel selector which worked good. I took out the carbs and left the cables attached to brackets to not disturb anything. Cleaned the filter and carbs out. I did not go all the way in the carbs because I didn’t wanna risk damaging gaskets but they were pretty clean. The little filters had some stuff but not clogged. The fuel lines actually look ok no determination or green slime. I tested the rectifier and it worked. I ran with the red wire off and tried the loose gas cap
So it’s stzrts ok. And will run but as soon as you get some good throttle it dies.
Oh and I did the trim the spark plug wires also. One time it worked good at under 40 mph for about an hour. I then shut it off went for supper. It started then died and wouldn’t start again.
I didn’t do compression test yet since I don’t have the tool here. Anything else I should check ?
Oh and thx.
