Latley the car has been hard to start. Must crank on it for about 10 sec. before it starts. Then at about 45 or 50 mph it starts to buck like maybe it's starving for fuel. Below 45 or 50 it seems to run fine.

Hi Geoff,

You need to check the fuel filter for clogging. If it is a carburetted model, you need to check the carb float level and any fuel leakages at carb accelerating pump.
