Got it figured out replaced both carbs running good now need to tweak the carbs a little then we will be all set

No theres very few weeds in the lake. I did some digging as im replacing the exhaust manifold. i found that on the i believe its the mag carb the high speed screw was turned all teh way in and was broken off i tried removing it but it is seized. The throttle plates were also a little sticky io disasssembled the carb but found no real problems besides that jet being stuck. the other carb was nice and free and the high speed screw was about two or three turns out. could this have the effect im seeing both jet intakes look clean so i don't think its a problem there. From teh way the engine sounds when it dies it sounds like it is either starving for fuel of is getting fuel dumped into the cylinders. causer it will shoot up once like its going to take off then just bog down no matter what i do.

hey guys just got back from the 1600 mile road trip to pick up my 98 challenger 1800. Will post about my first time out later this week.
