"No one is perfect: it is what the do about mistakes that
shows their character".
About 10 years ago , my Dodge Dakota work truck developed a
problem of spitting and sputtering five minutes after I
cranked up in the morning- just when I needed to pull out
on a busy highway.
I took the truck to Fred Cliffords: he rebuilt the
carburator and did a tune-up. Ran fine for the weekend-
Next Monday morning- same place same time same problem.
I took then truck back to Fred: he even took a known good
carburator of another truck - had the same problem.
Finally, after 3 or 4 more days of frustration he asked me
to stop by.
Seems that the problem was an intermittant solid state
module: All tuning and adjustments were done with the
controls disconnected from the carburator, and then the
module connected for 'trim' in normal operation.
The good news , Fred did not charge me for anything but the
carburator cleaning and rebuild. I elected not to replace
the $200 module.
&PS: I drove the truck many more years without the module
disconnected with no more carburation problems!
