Don't have any ethanol in my gas. Never use the stuff. Lucky to have good
gas where I live. I will check my ground. All my hoses are original except
water. Have looked at my hoses but will take them off and check that way
also. Will also check that brake hose.  Have changed the coil and no change.
It doesn't sputter. It just shuts down. If I feather the gas I can keep it
running. Don't know about checking the float level on the Autolite. Can do
it on the Holleys on my Birds. I had the carb rebuilt a few years ago and it
ran ok of quite a while. I have a lot to check. So I will get back to you
guys latter with an update. Thanks
