i believe in my case it was a mix of dying computer and a bad charcoal canister
Those both look like good options. I'll look into them. And on the running it's really aggravating. It runs fairly good for a 30 year old car one day then just like that it's bucking and sputtering like crazy.
You just need a Carter BBD two barrel for Mopars, non feedback. And that ignition OLDIRON posted up top is a good one. I prefer to keep it looking Mopar so I used a Mopar Performance ignition kit.

Mancini has a little more complete one
Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit, Hi-Po ECU
The Mopar one is for cars that already have electronic ignition. It's just a tune up kit, not a conversion kit. To convert from ESC (Lean Burn) you also need a distributor with mechanical and vacuum advance, along with the wire harness.
This thread and the links in it: Lean-Burn ConversionThanks guys. So do y'all care to put a link to everything I need on one post. I'm scattered lol. Im not stupid but I've never had to do all this.
Don't be afraid to go HEI in the futureThank y'all sooooo much. Can't wait to not be afraid of it messing up.
keep an eye out for that spark control computer on the air cleaner. does your Fifth in general run well now? don't worry about it. but if it begins stalling, shaking, making weird noises. lean burn delete kit might do wonders. did wonders for my Gran Fury. this involves a new carb, distributor, and ignition module
Or instead of swapping one computer for another, just delete the feedback carburetor, put a non feedback on, and throw the air cleaner back on. The computer will just run the ignition without any input from the carb.I'm guessing that the Lean Burn differs from the Spark Computer?
I've heard of the ignition kit to replace the Lean Burn system, Mopar Action magazine had several comments about that fix.
