I have '77 CJ-7 with 304 V-8. It has a Eldebrock carb. My problem is engine suddenly cuts off when either driving or idling. Hard to crank back, but when it does usually don't have that problem again...that day. I replaced coil and inline fuel filter but still cuts off.

Runs really good when running. Jeep is a weekend vehicle. Battery and cranking effort is strongstrong. I really have to pump accelerator and turn over engine excessively for it to crank back up.... after it cuts off. Rough idle at first, then it smooths out.
