I have Weber IDF40s and the engine dies after a very hard, just short of locking up the wheels, stop. It runs good and doesn't quit any other times. Anyone else have this problem? Could it be the float levels?

Does your electrical stay on? Similar issue happened to someone else and it was found that he/she had too much crap on the key ring and gravity would pull all that crap forward and turn the car off, then swing back and turn stuff on with a dead engine.
A bad start switch can do this without all the junk on the ring. It is an unlikely scenario, but I thought about it so posted it. |
