I have a 1972 CJ5 304 Holley 4BBL. Took it off-road last

Sent to Car Experts October 21 03:36 PM

I have a 1972 CJ5 304 Holley 4BBL. Took it off-road last week and had problems with it stalling on steep inclines / declines. I've been told that there is not sure fix other than fuel injection, but, I think there has to be something I could try before I spend that much $$$
