RE: IML: 1958 Imperial Convert.HELP!

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

start blocking off vacuum lines.  My 66 had a very
slight stumble caused by a leak in the vacuum for the
parking brake release.

Not enough to affect driveability, but if you remove
the vacuum lines and plug the vacuum ports, you have
started a process of elimination.  Removing the brake
booster has a direct consequence on braking, by the
way.

I had my carb rebuilt by an expert, and no amount of
cleaning had prepared me for the tremendous difference
that I saw.  You might want to pursue the Carb angle
farther.

Is your fuel delivery system OK?  Did you replace the
filter?  A starved carb "might" be part of this.


Process of elimination.
