i asked > 'how hot is hot and then won't start'
i got a bunch of excellent stuff to check but the winner is Steve Reilly who
said >> 'I think you are not getting any gas. When you turn the engine off,
the gas in the line gets hot enough to vaporize, as new (cooler) gas isn't
continually running thru the lines. Check your gas line routing and reroute
away from heat sources (engine,exhaust manifold etc)'. << from fuel pump
output it was routed and held in place right below and in front of thermostat
(where it is nice and hot). i rerouted it back from fuel pump to firewall,
across firewall and along top of carbs to fuel input to carbs. started
numerous times when fully warmed / hot. Thanks Steve, Brittany will be
picking you up saturday eve in her limo ;)
i still need to check some other stuff (valve timing etc) to get the temp
down, but,.
the car starts when it is hot now. gee, starts cold, starts hot, am i asking
to much now ?
all you runners up had other great ideas, which i am still going to do (it is
still running hot). i am still trying to contact christina agulilar for the
rest of you...
