Went to work on my soon to be acquired 69 GTS today.fuel pump has been changed and we took the 4160 Holley off and put in an accelerator pump diaphragm. Car starts but won't stay running unless you keep tapping the throttle. I think the sock in the tank may be plugged or the carb needs a rebuild! I had my wife write down the fender tag numbers in hopes that you guys can tell me what I have...No cash has exchanged hands until I can drive it onto a trailer! Her's what we got off the tag and there will be some missing numbers...
