F1 Bomber

Hey there, So I have a 85 T/A with the 305 H.O. 4bbl. When I go to start it up after it has been sitting for 6+ hours, it likes to stall right as soon as it fires up the first time and then again the second time unless i give it a little gas and keep it at 1000 rpm for a minute. After that its good until I let it sit for a 6+ hours again. I used a carb and choke cleaner but nothing. Any suggestions?

Do you pump the peddle before starting? Is your choke closing?

F1 Bomber

No I dont pump the peddle, and the choke isn't closing.

Try pumping the peddle four or five times and start. Repeat two or three times. See what happens. Pump to the floor.

I am curious to know if your car started as it should?

I tried pumping the peddle and it didn't seem to do much, still stalled, I am going to give the choke another check once it stops raining.

I have the same starting issue on an 87 firebired 2.8 V6, But it will also die randomly while driving. Regardless of outside temp.
I just pulled a code 34

Shouldn't need to pump it more than once. Twice in cold weather.
