Re: [AMC-list] AMC Eagle occasional starting question

Carb float sticking shut? It'll run for a few seconds on what's in the carb, then die. Needs more cranking to get gas back into the carb. 
AMHIK. :)

>From facebook replies: "On the IM, if that is the ignition module, yes, changed it out, $34 at O'Reillys, got the good one not shit house brand. Gas appears to be going into cab, there is NO emissions hooked up. Can look down carb and push acc rod and see gas go down no problem. Idles great once started. Coil...I did not replace, yet! Carb pump, didn't think of that but seems to be more electronic than fuel. From amc list: " check the stepper motor on the feedback carb.  I believe the o rings tend to leak or the motor quits working and sticks in one place.  Then it either lean or rich." Not sure where this is but do remember Steppenwolf back in 1960s. Appreciate all the replies also so far.

Eagle starting question. My wife's 88 Eagle, recently started acting up. you 
go to start it, turns over fine, sort of starts then dies. I have changed 
the ignition module, starter relays, solenoid. Most times, just cranks up, 
runs & drives great. But earlier today I took it to Office Depot & it did 
same thing. On 3rd try cranking it ran fine, drove home. Ignition rotor, 
cap, wires, plugs only about year old. Trouble shooting advise appreciated.
