I have an 83 GL sedan with a 1.8 pushrod engine that will start but dies when I attempt to accelerate above an idle. It spits back through the carb and dies. The previous owner installed new guts in the distributor. I checked the plug wires and they are correct and checked the timing, it is good. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you Texasjack

I recently traded for an 83 with a pushrod 1.8 engine. It will idle but when you attempt to give it gas it will spit through the carb and die. THe previous owner install new guts in the distributor. I reset the timing. checked the plug wire locations. It has 4 PSI fuel pressure. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thank you Texasjack

I know how to do the work but myOLD back will not permit that, TEXASjack

Sounds like fun. I need to get the timing belts changed on my 86 Brat. After 3 back surgeries, I will have to get someone to do it for me. TEXASjack
