Re: Engine breaking up or surging?? I'm confused

Thanks again, y'all for the help!

I replaced all of the rubber lines and both the inline and Quadrajet filter. Took it for a spin around the block and was not able to make the thing happen again, even with repeated stomping on the throttle through the rpm range in 2nd. I also tried it once in 3rd overdrive climbing a hill and it didn't stumble or sputter at all.

First picture shows the inlet side of the Qjet filter. Second picture shows the outlet of the same filter. I'll say it definitely did its job. Also, that filter has been in there for almost 4 years at this point because I haven't changed it since I bought that carb

I'm taking the truck on a trip to Lake Hartwell tomorrow to get some parts and hang with some friends. Should I go ahead and grab a coil to have with me on the trip just in case, then return it if I don't need it? Or do y'all think I'll be fine to send it as is?
