Bringing back a '73 from a barn. Got her going. She starts great cold, first thing in the morning, cranks right up. She will only run for about 5 minutes and then peters out and won't start until the next morning.
Any thoughts? |

I would suspect the head temp sensor. Do an ohms test when warm. It should be around 250 or less. Im assuming this is a djet.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Sounds like it could be Cylinder Head Temp Sensor...... Follow the Anders page and make sure you have all the basics checked out first; you'll save your self lots of time chasing tails. You may very well have several problems going on at the same time....thats what I found with my car. It does sounds like you are getting too much fuel and flooding out which is indicative of the CHT being bad. |

I'll check the temp sensor and the coils on the pressure sensor and let you guys know. |
