Gary below is having some problems with his
American. I mentioned to him that I would forward his dilemma to the amc-list
and see if anyone here can help him out. Should you reply, please copy your
reply to Gary also who is not a member at this time but may join. Thanks in
advance to all who might reply. Oh, the birthday was for Jacob, who turned 3 on
Feb 4th, we had a party at Peter Piper Pizza, better pizza than Chuck E Chunk,
and they won't rush you out like Chucky place does either!

Subject: 65 American 232 Hi Eddie,
Thanks for calling me back the other day! How was
your sons birthday?
I've decided that my question is not that urgent
that I can't try to put it into text. My 65 american stumbles and
stalls sometimes. I have rebuilt the carb and the base/throttle plate is
all tight. It still stumbles. The previous owner tells me and gives me proof
that the engine was rebuilt by "Jasper Engines"
There is a guy on ebay who claims that with the
fomoco carb kit he sells for around 300 bucks, that he can solve the problem. I
have read that this stumbling might be a common problem.
All the ignition system is original- points ect. I
was thinking of upgrading it to maybe an expensive electronic system. But
now, I am wondering if you have had or heard of remidies for this
engine?
I hope you can make out what I am saying, And
thanks again for all your recent and help over the years!
Gary Kirk Va.
