Mechanical Problems & Technical ChatIf you've got a problem you just can't figure out, a noise you can't diagnose, or a check engine light that won't go away, ask about it here!
Hello I have a 1979 cvcc wagon whenever I drive it for more then about 20 min it decides that it’s time for a break and the engine proceeds to loose power till it shuts off completely usually a few seconds. Then I have to wait for a bit till it’ll fire up again I recently bought the car and had no trouble driving it an hour and a half home. Any ideas of what it could be will be appreciated thank you for the help in advance
I'm just responding I'm case you figured out what was wrong. I have a1979 and it does the same thing. I've changed the fuel pump and next up is a carb rebuild, and I'm hoping something fixes that issue. Anyway, if the rebuild does anything, I'll post it here
