I have a '55 T-bird with stock 292 and a Summit M2008 600cfm carburetor. Everything was running perfectly until i let the car sit for about a month. It still fires right up with a bit of priming,
but it won't continue running on its own. I can keep it running with continual squirts of gas but as soon as i quit putting gas in the carburetor the engine stops. I've been told the problem
has to do with ethanol in the gas. Fuel pump seems to be working fine. Any suggestions?
