Im getting very tired of trying to fix my car my self so I guess Im going to fork out the money and just pay someone to get it running for me. I can get it started by pouring a little bit of gas right into the throttle body but the car won't stay started. I had the car running on 2 pistions not to long ago and I have just replaced a fuel injecter after testing it and finding out it does not work. I have already put new spark plugs changed the oil and replaced the fuel lines but now it just won't stay going. If I press on the gas, once I get it to start it will ether die cause it gets fluided or it will jump up to a high rmp then drop like a door knob. The only place I can find that will work on my car is charging $70 a hour so what do I tell him to fix? Is it my timing or somthing else. My car is a 2.0 1975. Thanks
