IIRC, the waxstat jets had a reputation for being troublesome. You can
convert the jets from waxstat to regular .090 jets very simply. You just
need the new jets and the linkage, which is just a small piece of bent
steel rod. I think I got mine from Joe Curto.

Subject: Heater Hose, SU question, exhaust, and more 
Time to get the car fixed up. Frank is restoring cars (multiple) in the 
time it takes me to think though a problem. 
2. I have twin HS4s with wax stat jets. When the car gets hot (not 
overheating, just hot), I sometimes have trouble reving up above 3,500
RPM. 
Maybe electrical, maybe fuel. The wax-stats adjust fuel delivery based
on 
heat, so it's possible they are going bad. I'd like to change the jets
to 
another. Any recommendations?
