Asked by jakefoote01 Dec 11, 2014 at 11:01 AM about the 1986 Chevrolet Celebrity

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I rebuild the carb and reinstalled it only to find the same problem it had before. the car will start and run for around 10 seconds then it cuts out. and it will keep doing it until the car is at a running temp. once at a running temp it runs and drives just fine.
