Re: 78 Suburban surging then dies on long grade

Alas... I reinstalled the stock steel line from the pump to carb. And I had a heck of a time getting the fitting to not leak at the pump, so I hesitate to hook up my Rube Goldberg rubber line with filter and gauge.

My rebuild kit is from Cliff Ruggles. Cliff thought this carb would be fine with 8psi fuel inlet. But it does seem like it could be pushing through the needle, overfilling the bowl, and the stumble is the motor almost flooding out...

Hmmm...
