Engine not stay running at idle
66 GP - starts fine, smooth, but will not stay running unless keep gas petal down or feather it. As soon as try to idle, stops. Have been thru the fuel system. Gas tank, sending unit restored, tri-powers rebuilt, new fuel lines - pump working fine and gas getting to carbs no problem. played with idle screws, but even when at a too high idle (car roaring) it will die as soon as foot off gas. someone in the past had put a resistor block on firewall that has a wire from starter to coil, then to resistor and back from other resistor plug to negative coil wire then to distributor. My 65 2+2 does not have this so unhooked resistor and it acts the same. would a bad coil affect running after started? Not sure what else to try?
