Car won't start but turns over fine.Replaced starter,plugs cap and rotor,points and condenser.Still no luck.Timing seems fine,but can't really tell without car running.Will start to catch when first started but dies and won't catch again until you let it set awhile,then same thing.Ant suggestions?

Better under Cars and trucks?

Carb issues. Flooding?

Or fuel pump. Did you try starting it after pouring a little gas directly in the carburetor?

You need spark, fuel and compression. Do you have a spark and are the plugs wet or dry after trying?
