So about that theory....

The car is running yes, but that's about it.

So the accelerator pump, a float (he found a bad float later) & the speedo cable were replaced - to stop the bouncing speedo issue. That's all good and well, but according to my mechanic it feels like the car is being choked when you hit the accelerator, unless you leave it to warm up for a very long time. Auto choke is good, timing is good, fuel system checks out. So that leaves just electrical?

My mechanic is a bit flummoxed but still trying to get it going right, last we spoke he's going to try putting in a good coil he happened to have.

Granted all I can keep imagining the ever lightening of my wallet and time NOT behind the wheel....ah well, at least once it's fixed it'll be FIXED.
