Default Re: Engine dies under load.

1. Why did you say the fuel pump works fine?
2. Any vacuum leaks, hoses, fittings, hard lines. Check the rubber lines carefully. Difficult to find a leak by just looking.
3. What exact motor? and what timing setting do you have?
4. Is vacuum advance working? Hose hooked up?
5. It does sounds like the carb bowl is empty. Recheck float level dimension and float drop dimension.
6. Choke working? Not stuck?
7. Let us know what new fuel pump does, but you can check the one you have now. Do you know how? If it works OK or the new pump does not fix it, that's OK. It narrows it down to few other areas.
