Stop in for a cup of coffee
Good Morning All. Worked on the Demon yesterday. I now have headlights, taillights, turn signals, hazzards, and brake lights. WooHoo! So, I took it for a drive around the neighborhood. Got way too far to walk in a hurry when it died. Crank - Fire - Quit repeat...repeat...repeat... Look, gas gauge says empty. Grrrrr. Left it on the side of the road with a distant neighbor I don't know watching it from his campfire. Walked home in haste, no gas in the can. Hopped in truck, drove to gas station and filled the 5 gal can, drove to car and poured it in. Gauge level came up, but no change in how it behaved. Finally got it to catch and stay running. Died several times on the way back home (maybe a mile). Got home and rev'd it several aggressive times (little upset at this point). Dropped it in gear and mashed it.....violent burnout in driveway. Left off, rolled forward - repeat...3 total. Car runs different and sounds different. Sounds like a carb issue to me. Will pull the fresh rebuilt carb of my son's rat rod for now so I can go through this one. Also, have to adjust the brakes as it pulls to the passenger's side and will turn 90 real quick during the burnout.
