My combine has a chrysler 318 v8 in it and it does not run right. It starts fine and runs smooth once it's going, but when a load is applied or you rev the throttle it spits and sputters and won't go for quite a while. Once it's going again it runs smooth. Does the same if you slow it down then rev it or just hit it with a load to open the governor.
What I have done so far is a total tune up including points, plugs, condenser, rotor, cap, wires, coil and plugs. I still need to get a new resistor which they were out of. Also took the carb apart and cleaned and inspected and it looks good. It has a new electric fuel pump that pumps plenty of gas and the carb gets gas.
One thing that interests and confuses me is that the distributor has a vacuum advance on it, but it has never been hooked up as it still has the factory rubber plug over the nipple and there is no place with a barb to hook it to the manifold.
When you rev it or load it adding choke does no good either.
I know it could he the resistor, but it looks fine and I will replace it anyway when I get home next.
I'm running out of ideas on what it could be that is causing this. I know it has to be something simple because it starts and runs good otherwise. What do you folks think the problem could be?
