I had a problem like that on my 29. I put a ceramic filter in the sediment bowl under the autovac. Car had set for a while while radiator was out. When I put it back together and test drove it, first had what I thought was autovac problems, engine would surge then discovered the vacuum wiper hose was off next to the wiper motor. That fixed then discovered car would shut off at speed. Removed that ceramic filter and she runs like a top. Really did not need it now since enough fuel had run thru the system since I cleaned and lined the tank that no further trash is coming thru.
