Does that sound like carburetor accelerator pump problem? Choke seems to be working OK. Had same problem with other cars (4 barrel) but switched to Edelbrock.

I would like to put new coil springs on my newly acquired 56 power hawk. Someone has put screw-in spacers probably due to low front and it's a rough ride. My question is should I use the standard coils or the heavy duty... Studebaker International has both. It has the stock 259 with power steering and brakes and will most likely put AC on it. Thanks in advance for your comments. Saltman
