ok, my 53 super c just got a tune up because it was running badly... only it didn"t fix the problem. Once it runs more than a couple of minutes and expecially on a hill or under a load, it spits, sputters, and dies. It will crank back up, but once back under a load it dies again... what do you think? Carb rebuild...

I had the same problem on mine. Seemed to have good fuel flow, so I change the coil. Still did it. So frustrated, I started taking the thing apart starting at the sediment bowl. Found a whole lot of sedement packed together in the top of the assembly, above the valve. Removed it and it has run fine since.
Maybe its the same thing??

To eliminate a fuel problem use the choke to see if this improves the performance. If it runs better it's a fuel problem. Hal

If ya have good fuel flow then repace your coil.

If the other things mentioned do not help check your spark plugs. If you have to high heat range plugs that will cause those symptoms with the stuff that passes for gas these days. Try a D15 or D17 champion or equilvent brand plug.

Pull the drain plug out of the bottom of the carb, if you have a good flow of gas there then its probably as Hal said and your mian jet is clogged up. If you don't have a good flow of gas then it could be your float is sticking and or a clogged fuel line/filters.

I had a piece of string, about 1 inch long floating around the line just before the carb. It would ball up and cause a restriction, or float out, and run good. It took three years to find it.

I had a Chevy with that 2.5L engine and it would just quit like someone had shutoff the ignition.
It would do this when out on the highway at times. It would always restart and then keep on running. I always thought it was a fuel problem
and this engine had the TBI (throttle body injection) system. I pulled the fuel line from the filter to throttle body and silver soldered
a 1/8 pipe fitting on the gas line. I then connected a nylon line from that fitting to a gauge. The fuel pressure looked normal and I drove it for awhile and it kept stalling. I tried accellerating when on a steep hill and I noticed the fuel dropped way off. Then I knew it was probably in the tank. I pulled the tank and on those cars the fuel pump is in the tank. The sock that covered that pump inlet was cover with rust. A new pump & sock with a tank cleaning fixed the problem. My neighbor was watching when
I was doing this and he said I wouldn't change that pump, I said but you're not the one that has to pull that gas tank. That part's store called "The Pep Boys" guarantee's most of their parts for as long as you own the car. You do need to keep your receipts. Hal

You need to check for any fuel blockage in the tank, sediment bowl, gas line and the inlet screen at the carburetor if it has one. Your main jet may be plugged with dirt or rust or both
in the carburetor. Sounds like it's starving for gas when under load. Hal
