"1985 GM 350 / 5.7 / 260?
First we suffered ignition problems which I believe have been taken care of. New cap, rotor plugs and wires (thunderbolt ignition). Also replaced fuel seperator, fuel filter, cleaned every electrical connection I could find and shot an entire can (while just above idle) of carb cleaner through the intake.
Starts, idles and rev's better now but still out of water to date. Lose of power was my original demon.
It first starts idleing at 700rpm and slowly drops to 500 and nearly wants to quit? Rev the motor up and return to nuetral, the idle is now at 1000, then slowly drops right back to 600 or so (takes 1 or 2 minutes or so to fully drop back). I have checked all linkage and the problem does not appear to be there. Choke seems to open fine with temp increase. Fuel is good with no water in seperator.
Any help will be greatly appriciates.
