Well at least I know what was going on there, now.

I really didin't think it got very good gass miliage as is. Now that I have put it back you say the miliage will be worse. Good thing I don't have to drive it every day.

The starting problem is not a cranking problem. It cranks just fine, hot or cold. This winter with tempurature below 40 degrees it didn't have a problem starting after it was up to temperature however, last summer when the outside temperature was in the 90's I would have to crank and crank before it would fire. It wasn't an immediate failure in that if I turn it off and then try to start it it works fine. But if I get the engine up to temp. and then turn it off and let it sit for 20 minutes or so, its a a reall bitch to get started again.

There's a thread under the 'elecrical' forum on this.

I have replaced everything I can think of; fuel pump, hoses, points, plugs, plug wires, gas line on both sides of the fuel pump. Choke seems to be working as it should.

Just can't figure it out. I will have to wait until things warm up a bit though, to get the symptoms back.

Thanks for all the help.
