I have a 1972 winnabago with a industrial 318 in it. It runs great or atleast it did Besides the starter may need replacing, it stalls and won't start again for an hour or two after running for about 30 minutes, It's seems to be getting fuel but it's doen't fire. Any idea's?

Who ever figured the idea of putting a push to choke cable on there was not in there right mind either. Any help would be helpful, I need to move this from where it is and don't want to have it towed again to do so

Hi Tacobill,

If you have fuel but no sparks, then you need to check the coil or distributor.

Well I didn't check that because it does starts and after about it just quits for about an hour then it will restart, But I'll look that way also. Thank you
