85 D100 custom bogging down and dieing in gear.
Final update, ive been busy and forgot to post friday. Intake gaskets fixed the problem! Runs like a dream now. And much more power and milage now that ive eliminated all the emission control crap as well as the A/C compressor. Thanks to all that gave me pointers. -

Found the issue! Horrible intake gasket leak, while idleing i was spraying carb clean on all the vacuum lines to double check them for leaks. Lines are fine but when the stream hit the seam between head and intake it made the engine stumble. So i focused on the intake and there is 3 places... -

Im unsure if it has an egr. Where would it be if it does? -

And given their reputation and my shops experience with Carb Junkies over the years, im all but positive that its set correctly. I know anyone can make a mistake, i make em all the time, but we have never gotten a faulty carb from them. -

No sight glass, im having to depend on the remanufacturer to have it set right. If i open up the carb the warranty is void. Supposedly they flow test and some other test it before shipping. For what ever thats worth. -

Yes it does only have one accelerator pump. It sputters and dies while driving it normally, but at an idle in park its fine. If i give it gas fast though it dies immediatly. -

Ok, so i checked the choke. Its working as it should be. Double and triple checked the timing and its dead nuts where it should be, 12 degrees before top center. Replaced the fuel filter for the hell of it and cut off the catalytic converter and replaced it with steel pipe. No improvement at... -

Ill check the catalytic converter and the fuel line and tank monday. The truck is still at the shop so i cant touch it until then. -

It started a couple weeks ago, i knew the carb was in desperate need of a rebuild so when this started i chaulked it up to that. I had my carb completely rebuilt and flow tested by Carb Junkies(thats who my shop uses for all the carb jobs) but it dident solve this problem. I started off by... -

What would or could cause the fuel to get too hot? Yeah thats what i was just saying to myself, no emissions so no catalytic converter. Shouldent be too hard to cut off and weld in a piece of pipe. -

Vapor lock? Sounds familiar but i cant remember? What is that? I didnt even think of the catalytic converter. Ill check that next. -

Yes, just the "blow test" though. I can blow through it pretty easily. -

Im having an issue with my dodge truck, 1985 D100 custom, 318 c.i. (5.2 liter for you metric fans) with 2 barrel holley carb( almost bran new) and 4 speed auto trans. Truck runs fine in park or neutral, and it drives fine until the motor warms up to where it always is temp wise. Then it...
