Okay the vehicle involved is a 78 1/2 350/350/205 engine and all componants are NEW. Here is my problem. When the engine is cold it fires right up and Idles fine but it runs like a dog in gear- no real power. Last night I drove it 1/2 mile put gas in it and when I went to leave I had to fight to keep it running and had to keep it floored to keep it running and barely hit 25 MPH. It is a NEW holley reman quadrajet direct from Holley this is the second one I've got from them. All ignition parts have been replaced and were not the cause of the problem. It ran well enough and long enough to pass emmisions but it seems if I turn it off and then start it again is when the problems occur. Also it is a manual divrced chike setup. I want to hit the trail in this thing and I am really frustrated with this, I've been fighting this problem since feb. Also I am in a High altitude enviroment and holley told me they rejetted it for my elevation. Also black smoke come out of the exhaust when the problem is occuring, I think its still rich But??? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
