[urq] Post overhaul issue, 83 Urq

[Jim Haseltine]

If you hadn't replaced the fuel filter that's what I'd be blaming. Is it an 
OE filter or aftermarket? Some AM filters are able to deal with the pressure 
froma CIS pump.
Check your fuel flow. Once from cold and then again as soon as the car has 
stalled, I suspect you'll find quite a difference.

Regards,

Jim Haseltine
