Well, wise ones, I had a little bit of a scare today in my B, and I thought I'd see if anyone had any further suggestions beyond what I attempted. FYI: 66 B roadster, stock carbs (with Grose-Jets) an

FWIW: Years ago, before emission controls, it was a kids trick to turn of the ignition of a car while coasting, and then turn it back on. If it was done correctly, the engine would give a very loud
