IIRC, You said you rebuilt the carbs, then tried running the car on old
fuel
(read "varnish"). You might want to recheck the carbs for contamination....

Yes, I DID try to run it on the tank, but only for a very short time, and
very shortly thereafter, went back to the new gas. I know that this is a
possibility, but, again, from much experience, and from the fact that it
acts EXACTLY as it did before the carb rebuild, on good and old gas, I don't
think this is the problem!
But, thanks, I will keep it in mind!
