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?

I've only owned the car for a couple years and yes the problem has been occurring since day 1. What I first noticed was the oil pressure light would come on so I don't think the electrical is cutting off...I only use 1 key with no key ring when I drive it. Also if the power cycles the A/F gauge would go through it's startup process and that is not happening. I have not tried it in neutral but I know it does happen with the clutch in. I'll try it in neutral the next time I'm out. I'll see if the A/F goes way lean/rich during the hard stop and maybe I'll be able to tell if it's fuel related.
