Motor stalls
The little 307 was purring along. Today it started dying everytime i came to an idle. It would run rough then quit.If you pump the hell out of it at idle it will finally rev back up. The tach seems to be jumping around also. When going over 1000 it seems to be okay. I have noticed a little loss in power to. It had a carb rebuild, fuel filter, pts,plugs, etc about 6 months ago and was doing fine. Today it must have been mad at me. Anyone? P.S. no vacum leaks or noticeable problems..Timing chain?, vacum advance? junk carb?

might check look at the fuel filter cause it could be just getting plain dirty what you should do if you havent already is get a clear one so you can see actually what your filtering out

It wouldn't hurt to take a look at those points again. They should be a light gray with no pitting.
