Hesitation/Stall question

Dana67Dart said

Are those hoses fuel rated?

The following only covers the empty fuel filter

If your fuel filter is running empty you have one or more of a few problems.

1. Float level
2. Float sticking
3. Fuel lines are getting hot enough to vaporize the fuel
4. The fuel pump is malfunctioning
5. There are restrictions in the fuel lines
6. Any of the hoses connecting solid pipe to solid pipe are collapsing
7. The sock filter on the fuel pickup is clogged
8. The venting of the gas tank is clogged
9. There is not enough fuel in the tank
10. Pickup is bent
11. The gas cap is non vented and it should be a venting type (I don't know if any A body cars ever used a vented cap)

As for diagnosis...
Start at one end and start checking.

Thank you for the info, I was planning to pull the carb and check the float this weekend as well as the sock filter and lines.
I don't believe the A body used a vented cap but I will look into that a little more as well. The car was a /6 runner before I swapped the motor so everything from the original setup with tank and lines even the carbon can or vapor can in the engine bay haven't been touched. I did just pull the line from the can last night when I was testing the pump with no spark to see if that made a difference but inconclusive at the time.
