Default Re: Starved For Fuel?

It took the car for a spin, and here is what I've found. The car "runs out of steam" somewhere around 4700 RPM, in any gear.

I have checked the float levels and they are okay.

Any ideas?

Could it be an ignition problem like a weak coil?
The timing is set to 4 degrees and the dwell is 28 degrees

Check to make sure your coil isn't wired backwards...car will still run, but takes a dump when under load.
