1969 dodge coronet 4 door
318 with a carter BBD 2 barrel
The car was lacking power under high RPM/Full throttle and slighly cut out like it was starving for fuel.

The carb had a "remanufactured" sticker on it from 2006, but the carb looked a lot older than that.

So, I got a rebuild kit to clean it up. I took it apart and cleaned it thouroghly, got A LOT of dirt crap out of the bowls.

Careful to put it back together.

Car starts fine, revs great in park/neutral. ON THE ROAD, Now it lacks EVEN MORE POWER from half throttle up and starts missing like it's starved for gas, but it doesn't actually die...

I should have left the dirty carb alone.

So what do I do now? Take it apart and reclean it?
Buy a new remanufactured carb?
Any ideas? It's little things like this that drive me crazy!


thanks
