Engine Stalling
Engine runs for 30 minutes in gear then stalls as if out of gas. The rpm's slowly drop then stalls but if I put it in neutral, it remains running. It always starts right up but the next cycle becomes shorter - i.e 10-15 minutes, then 5 minutes. I have done all the things that Don Moyer has suggested as follows -
Fuel side - new carb, new fuel hoses and vent hose, Facet pump new end of last season, new Racor, arrestor cleaned, no dirt in carb. I have bypassed the pressure switch to run the pump and it will pump 1 litre in a minute or less into a container.
Electrics - new plugs, points, condenser, rotor, cap, wires, coil, pressure switch.
Yesterday, I checked exhaust back pressure on exhaust flange and it is 1.0 psi but periodically rises to 1.5 psi and when it stalls, will read 1.0 psi.
I am open to all thoughts and suggestions.
