Rv falls on its face after engine is warm
Hi there, I have a 1984 Fleetwood Southwind Rv. It has a 454 big block and I'm having a issue I can't seem to figure out. The rv starts up every time and idles perfect. It drives perfect while cold getting up to speed with no issues as well as going up hills with plenty of power. Once it has warmed up though if I slow down or stop and attempt to accelerate again, I have to lightly push the pedal or it will completely fall on its face losing all power.. If I attempt to go over 30-40mph after being warmed up it just falls on its face. Odd thing is, if I just keep driving it from the time I start it up cold without falling below 55-60 it will maintain speed but, the second I have to slow down for any reason it's all over. I have had the carburetor freshly rebuilt, no vacuum leaks and cats aren't clogged.. tomorrow I plan to try distributor and potentially the fuel pump... Anyone ever deal with this or have any suggestions ? Any input would be immensely appreciated..2.3KViews0likes8Comments
