Running rough ,,/,,,Short ?
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2018 4:31 pm
So I have completed my prosess of elimination and still the problem persists . rough or no Idle under , acts like no gas , runs OK at higher rpm . replaced coil ,points , roter ,cap , and carborater . Its timed right and the mixture is probly set right , right enough anyway ,problem persists in any setting , runs a little better richer .
But here's the interesting thing I found , and had noticed a while back ..... when I press the starter button and crank it over it only starts after I let go of the starter button ..!?..I looked at the starter button by dropping it out of the dash and crosssed up the terminals with a screwdriver , same thing , will start after the screw driver is removed .Looked at the wiring and all looks OK , new harness from Rhode Island , 5000 miles ago . Am going to look at the starter this weekend , I am not any good with meters and testers , am going to try and polerize my voltage regulater and see if maybe that is it but ,,,,,,,any ideas ??
I will say that up to this point it has been running fine , never let me down , stalled in an intersection and seemed like it was having the gas problem , started after a while but ???
