Re: 86 z28 carb issue simple fix ?
Might be time for a cab rebuild. No fuel squirt could be an aging booster pump.
Change the filter first and see if there is a change. Use a 1" wrench on the big nut to keep from twisting the line.
Post back and we can help.

Thanks for the help.
Im leaning towards just rebuilding it and not have to worry for awhile.I like to have a quick fix just to have fun with the car alittle before winter.

Aside from the above check your throttle shaft for play. It should be fairly tight with little noticeable movement back and forth (with throttle open). Bushing it is fairly simple.
