Hi there my car is stranded in a lot fortunately in walking distance to my house.
Symptoms are that it seems to start and run fin when cold about 10-15 minutes. It will then stall and then I cannot start the car. It does not smell like it is flood (actually cannot smell any fuel) The last time this happened it sat over night and then it started with no problems. I just changed the points although I do not think that was the problem I had never seen points that were not completely solid contact area the ones installed had a hole in the center so I replaced them. Thanks, Dan |

Dan...first off I am sorry to hear that you are having troubles....the fact that this happened before and then started the next morning sounds to me like a fuel filter, or fuel tank sock filter or fuel line restriction(kinked under tank). that is if the fuel pump itself is not suspected. If when you turn the key on you don't hear the pump run at all give the fuses on the relay board a spin then try again...it should run for a second or two each time you turn the key on from the off position....I wish I could be there to help.......Jerry
