Eddie carb diagram request
Sounds like it is running out of gas.
Could be a vacuum leak as well.Make sure your carb is tight,and all unnecessary ports are plugged with new plugs.I have 2 cars with Eddies on them,and both of them hook up to the passenger side port of the carb for the distributor.
I have had the same problem getting the car started after taking the carb off.You need to get the car to run for a minute to get the fuel lines,filter,carb full of gas and any air out of the system.Pour a little gas in the carb to get it running.
Hope this helps.
