[DeTomaso] Carb problem

[Curt Hall]

Been following this engine stalling thing. It's interesting to hear all the different thoughts. Let me be the first to say...I would have to Pay someone else to fix it! 
 
Did this stalling just start or has it been a on going thing? There are some pretty sharp guys (and Gals) on this forum so I'm sure someone will be able to help you figure it out!
Good Luck

I don' know how this happened, possibly because I started on an I -pad the.
Sent it. From my desk top and apparently had a draft left on the I-pad
which I inadvertently  resent.
I wanted to say that I don't think I have any carb spacer and I know I have
heard these recommended numerous times. . Seems like a good suggestion.
