I starting to think its the floats hanging up or needle and seat issue. Its a brand new Holley, and I have adjusted everything to where its properly adjusted and purrs like a kitten in the shop, but the last couple times I have drove it now, it shuts down right after I stand on it like it running out of fuel. Whats driving me nuts is not the consistent failure, its the inconsistent way it shuts down.

Just swapped the coil, no change.
