    CPS or something else?

    guys, the eta has started giving me problems starting. she eventually starts but is troublesome at times. while cranking she will catch for a sec then die but with a little throttle coaching will eventually start with out fail, meaning she hasn't stranded me YET. she will also from time to time stall while driving. when this happens, the tach DOES NOT drop and if i goose the throttle she'll pick back up. relays are only a year old. cps??? or fuel pump??. not much electrical experience here.

    Intake leaks or fuel system would be my first suspects. Have shop run a smoke tesst.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      intake is good jim, had smoke test done. i still think fuel pump or cps. mine is an 86es so i have 2 sensors, do i have to remove the manifold to change them out?
