Hello everyone. I don't know where to put my question, so I thought this area would be the best.
Truck: 1984 c10 short wide step-side. factory motor 305, factory trans. automatic., original carburator, dual tanks. Truck is pretty much all original.
My issue it, the truck starts and runs fine for about 20 min. but after that it shuts down by itself like if I turned it off. I try to crank it over, but no luck, I acts like it want to crank over but after a min. or so I smell where it floods out. After about 40 min. it will crank up and I can drive it again for another 20 min. Kind of lost of what is going on. I have check for any loose electrical issues, I put a new battery, got alt. tested, checked any fuses that might be loose or burned. I get spark when it shuts down, I did the screw driver in the wire test method, check cap and rotor. Anyone ever run into something similar.
Thinking it might be a bad ignition coil? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
