Re: 71' C-10 cutting out intermittently
From outside the normal thought process.
I had an issue similar to this while I was stationed overseas in the UK. 86' VW Passat with a Audi 5 cylinder... That bugger would move. Would lose power and eventually shut off. Let it sit for 10 or 15 minutes it would fire off no problem. Finally caught it one day. The wonderful cool moist air of the UK was causing my venturies in the carb to freeze up solid. I ran full time vacuum to my hot air unit on the air cleaner housing and problem solved. You wouldn't see it unless you pulled the air cleaner when it happened. It would happen quickly sometimes or you may drive for an hour before it freeze.
