Before you go through the trouble of a tank cleaning just bypass it and use a can of gas as a source. It’s just a quick test but it can prove out your suspicion about the fuel source.

If anyone any figure sh!t out in the sty it’s you Bob. Take a step back…go back to the basics of air-fuel-fire, think of the simple stuff and you figure it out.

Good idea

Douche with vinegar

I don't believe you need a douche so skip the vinegar and go straight to the phosphoric acid.

IT'S ALIVE . So got it teaked got 18 psi vac and 670ish on RPMs at temp of 160 °. Shut it down, installed air cleaner. Took it for a short drive ( NO JINX .) Accelerating much better, didnt shut down on me when slowing or turning or hard braking. Believed problem is solved. Just need to figure out choke cable hook up.

Nice!!!

And then what is the protocol for rinsing out the phosphoric acid and all the associated crud?

Sodium carbonate (soda ash) no different than if he used vinegar.

The points can be out of adjustment and you can still have spark.
All of the times I had issues with them was at higher rpm’s. It would idle fine but, run fine up to 1000 - 1500 rpm, and cut out and miss at higher rpm.
