motor keeps killin on me

check the connections for the vac hoses on the carb. grab u a can of brake clean and spray on the manifold and around carb while engine is running to help find your vac leak. you will notice a change in idle when the engine sucks up brake clean from the leaking area.

i think i got some carb cleaner i can use i didnt think of that....a guy told me dump a mixture of windex and soap on the manifold i didnt see how it would help

dont know how it would help but im sure u would hear a difference in idle once the engine sucks it in from the leaking area. ive always used brake clean, or carb cleaner either will work.

Ok, sounds like a fuel pump going bad, or fouled plugs can do that also...also do you have a lock up transmission? if so the lock up may not be disengaging

new things, especially if it's made in china, can be defective......

try leaving the vac line open, the motor should idle at a higher rpm if this seem to fix the problem then you may need to adjust your idle on the carb
