Hi, hoping someone can help have 1985 chev c30 with 7.4l. Runs fine all day at idle or stationary at high rpm.
As soon as I take it out on the road it will start to starve for fuel and almost die unless I feather the accelerator.
When going to remove the fuel line I noticed there was high pressure and although I didn't time I would guess it was under pressure for at least 30 seconds. Can someone explain this as I have never seen this before. This was also after the vehicle had been sitting for at least 15 minutes. Any ideas on the fuel starvation problem. Does on flat surface as well as hills.
Also have replaced distributor as I have seen issues with the wiring to pickup coil.
Thanks for any ideas.
