Adjust your carb, otherwise, it's a problem with gas getting to the carb while accelerating.

What is wrong when your Chevy Caprice classic ls is not starting up?

The cheapest way to find out what is wrong with your car is to check the little things before you start spending money. Check for bad fuses, check your battery if it's dead, check if you have enough oil in your car or even enough gas in your car to start it up, definitely check the spark plugs if their bad since you have a older car, air filter. if your car has nothing wrong with those minor problems then your going to have to go to your nearest auto store and ask them what can go wrong in a Chevy Caprice classic.
