I have a gremlin with a 383 stroker. It starts runs then dies going down the road. Have to let it sit a couple mins and it starts runs then dies again. Could it be a float problem?

At least you're not dealing with a split rim on an old semi. Those things are killers. The demountable is fine, but the demoutable portion having the split in it made them EXTREMELY lethal. Just the demountable rim would be great today because tires changes would go a LOT faster.

@@SmackeysGarage Yeah, they are an interesting item. Having the portion of the rim where the bead of the tire mounts separate from the rest of the wheel allows the spare to be inflated the whole time. Those need to come back, minus the split in the rim that could fail and make it a projectile.

If you use the correct size socket without an impact wrench you might get ten removals. Use a impact you're done cause the cap is soft and deforms.
