I recently bought an 85 tri-z. It sat in a shed for the past 10 years and wasnt ran. I emptied the fuel tank and cleaned the carb(in carb cleaner, took jets out and blew them out with air hose to make sure they werent dirty. It was missing a fuel pump when i picked it up so i got it running off a gravity fed bottle. It ran really good when it was in neutral. When i drove it it ran really choppy. After i got a fuel pump on it, it ran awesome but it only runs really good up to about a quarter mile. The fuel pump is pumping plenty of fuel to it so thats not the issue. After that it just completely falls on its face. I have to put it on choke and it will idle back to the shed but thats it. If i let it sit for about ten minutes i can do the same thing again. I can repeat this all day long. Can someone point me in the direction i need to go. Thanks
