I appreciate the replies and here is the car on www.youtube.com so anyone can hear the symptoms, has a miss, and 'klock' sound thru carb. I just drove it slowly to go put new high tech gas in it, and also checked all the screws on the carb also, and checked the vac lines: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAgSNuo9trA Thanks for replies.

Check to see that the carb hold down nuts are secure and check for elsewhere for an intake vacuum leak, vacuum hoses, etc. ====================== From: Tom McKenna Eddlie - Don't overlook bad gas, or gas with water in it, if she got fuel somewhere. It will create the same condition. If everything checks out otherwise, try a can of de-icer in the fuel to dry up the water - ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
