    1965 Buick Skylark
    V8-300 with a 4b Carburator, 2speed tranny

    Any help will appreciated
    Problem:
    My car keeps choking, sounds like it has a bad cough. I checked the Fuel Filter and it seems like black particals of some kind are living there. Is it coming from the CArburator or the Fuel?or what's causing it? Sometimes while driving it back fire's, and while at a red light stop, it sounds like it wants to turn off, so i put it on Neutral and it just settles down.

    Any idea why this is happening? Please HELP..my baby is suffering
    :ball:
