OS P3, GRP 2053 pipe, nitrotane fuel, motor idles fine, theres really good pinch, and motr has about 3 gallons to the best of my knowledge (bought used). i ran the motor a couple weeks without fault, so I believe it should be something that happen recently. any1 have any suggestions on where to look for the problem first?
there are plenty of places on the track to clear out the motor so i don't know what the deal is...
hard to say ...sounds like an air leak in the fuel system or on the carb ...just my .02
