Stovebolt.com Forums The Side Lot The Great Lakes Bolters Need helping hand with 235; Minneapolis area

53_fivewindow

Hi all
Was wondering if there are any bolters in the msp area that would be willing to give a guy and hand/advice with a stubborn 235 and running issues?
I've been working on this project for quite a while and have made tons of progress. Suspension, transmission, brake work etc.
Having trouble getting the 235 to stay running at stop signs.
Idles fine in the garage just won't stay running when stopped at intersections.
I've tried most all of the usual suspects, carb,ignition etc. And just can't figure it.out.
I'm sorta in the home stretch and would like to cruise her this year before the snow flies again.
If any local experts on the 235 would be willing to lend a hand, I'd be greatly appreciated some experience with these engines.

Thanks all

You can post here, tho if you are close by to help.
