My 64 Cruiser (289), still needing a re-build, runs just perfect at idle. However, if trying to apply any power to the car, the engine stumbles and has no power. A mechanic said that I only have about 1 lb of pressure at the carb. He also said that I have a lot of air in the line. I have not replaced the gas line rubber hose along the front of the cross member to the fuel pump. I have replaced the rubber hoses by the inline fuel filter. Other than these two areas and potential the gas line, what else could be the culprit? I replaced the fuel pump 2 years ago, so would be surprised that it has failed already.
Also, I am not sure what generates the fuel pressure, am assuming it is the fuel pump pulling the gas from the tank. Any thoughts appreciated.
