Hello all,
Having some starting issues with a 170 in a 1964 Falcon Futura. When the engine is cold it seems to take a lot of pumping and cranking to get it to fire. When up to temp no choke and two pumps all it takes although sometimes I do have to pump/ crank it like when it is cold. It has the autolite carb that the holley 1940 is based on. Is there anything I should check before tinkering with the catb?
