360 Tune-up - 5/2/2008 4:53:22 PM    otterby   Posts: 4 Joined: 5/2/2008 Status: offline I've got a '73 Power Wagon 3/4 with a 360 that I can't seem to get to run right. Below 1500 rpm is not so rough but when you push on the throttle it acts like its flooding out and even backfires occassionally, it's really bad when the engines not hot. Above 1500 rpm it runs like a dream. I'm not good with carbs so thats probably where the problem is (its a Holly 2 BBL). I've timed the engine and replaced all the basics. Any advise on where to start? Post #: 1
