Won't idle - Fuel Cut solenoid? Something else? See video.
Video: https://youtu.be/jfYTjRdqwLU
Background:
Previous owner did head gasket, new fuel pump, distributor, wires, plugs.
I've rebuilt carb, new 3mm silicone vacuum lines (on most stuff around carb), new pcv valve.
Fuel cut solenoid tests bad.
Choke heater tests 20 ohms from connector to carb body with Fluke 87v
Outer vent seems to be bad (no click)
Measured 0.5 ohms from neg batt terminal to carb body with Fluke 87v
Adjusting idle mixture/RPM screws seems to affect mixture and RPM, but doesn't solve the sputter and die problem.
Runs slightly longer when super cold (maybe 10-15 secs before she dies with no throttle applied)
The more she warms up, the worse the problem gets, dies within seconds without throttle applied.
Any ideas? I'd really prefer to keep this all stock, but I'm a couple steps away from ripping everything out and going Weber 32/36 + EGR delete. Thanks fellas!
