I had a test drive and after a few miles the car stalls with fouled plugs again. I have dual Weber 40 IDFs with an 009 dizzy and an after market coil from my FLAPS. The timing is right on and the dwell is fine. After cleaning the plugz away I go for a few more miles. Idling they even foul after a few minutes. If I start turning the idle mixture screw out I start to get poping thru the tail pipe, which sounds like a lean condition, but after a few minutes the car stalls with fouled plugz. The car really hasn't idle very smooth. Could the pump by-pass valve be the culprit? I had this thread before and still can't get the car to run right.
