Dash pot
I need a dash pot for a 70 cutlass with a 2barrel. Anybody make them? What it does is when i'm at a light for awhile, It just dies. Then of course it hard to start.

Could be many things but air leak somewhere in the fuel line system seems possible or a fuel pump valve that is going bad.You really need to do some investigation before we can help. Have you taken off the air cleaner and checked to see if there is fuel in the carb bowl( pump the throttle to see if the accelerator pump has fuel to it).You need to sort out whether it's fuel related (probably) or something else....

I don't think a dash pot does do much more than slow down the linkage to the carb on deceleration. It was the first of the steps the car company's did to help emissions.Could be wrong on this, all my cars are ether old enough to be emission free or fuel injected.... Tedd
