Starting
I am having problems starting my ERA with a 351 and a four-barrel 750 Holley. It seems to flood itself immediately and will only start when "dried" out and I quirt some starter fluid. But as soon as I let the rpm's drop, the engine tends to die. When it does, it is impossible to restart unless it has sat for a while, and the gas seems to have evaporated from the carbutor, and I spray some more starter fluid. Then, the whole cycle repeats itself.
Someone (Bret Ewing) suggested in another posting that such a problem could be due to a fuel regulator issue. My car also has a Holley fuel pump.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
