New Monte Carlo Owner
Hello everyone, I recently bough a 1986 Monte Carlo Sport Coupe CL off of my Grandfather. It has a little over 15k miles on it. Pictures to come.
The question I have is, It sat in a garage for the last 10 years. It was started occasionally but not driven. The car hesitates off the line. Almost like it wants to stall and then it will take off. Any ideas? I've cleaned the system w/ Sea Foam and it still does it. Does the Carb need rebuilt?
Thanks,
Brent

Welcome to the forum!!!
For a car that sits like that, you will need to fully do a tune-up and check EVERY rubber hose and fitting on that engine. There could be vacuum leaks like crazy.
