Was the manifold new or the original? We had a 300 comein and it was in and out of the shop for about 3 weeks. Would run good and just up and quit breathing. Pull start it, or shoot eitherin it for a few minutes, and it would eventually kick back off and run for a while, and do it again maybe 3-4 hrs later. Found the intake manifold was cracked. Had to sand blast it to find the crack, but it was a tiny hairline fracture along the back side of the manifold. when it was cold, it would seal up, soon as it warmed up it would flex and leak. Flood the carb, still had a little vacuum, but not enough to draw it to the valves, but enough to draw hard enough on the carb to pull it right up to the place where it leaked. This thing had been like this since 1972 the guy said,,,,, and its been a everyday runner ever since. If its not that, maybe check the carb, valve lash, or the governor, make sure the butterfly is working with the linkage. Since thelast time I talked with you, we picked up a real nice 350, fast hitch. Hope this helps, Chad
