I have a 71 C10 with a 350/350 combo . Engine is original with a quadrajet but runs O.K. The problem is is that I can start it and let it warm up for a couple of minutes and when I attempt to put it into drive or reverse it stalls . It will re-start right away but until it is really warmed up it does the same thing . Is it that the motor is so shot that it doesnt have enough poop to keep going or something else ?
