Hello, I have an original olds with a 455 in it. The carb idles a littel heavy at first and city driving, it seems to bog from a complete stop and stall. Let's say a crowded red light in Chicago. Also, when traveling over 40-50 mph, the engine completely stalls, and won't start up again. I don't know if this is a fuel pump issue or a carb issue or an engine issue. Please Help!
