    '86 accord carb flooding

    Hi. I am just wondering if someone can help me figure out why my carb just occasionally floods and stalls the car. Usually on the highway this happens: It'll start missing as the carb begins to load up and if you don't pull over it will stall, then you can wait 10 or 15 seconds with the car off and start it up again and drive for another couple hours with no problems. I have replaced the fuel pump, distributor and coil from another donor car i own. I just recently discover that there is an O2 sensor, does this control fuel delivery?
    cheers

    You are probably looking at a rebuild or, if you don't have smog checks, a Weber swap.
