I have stated my question in a way to get the most responses/help/ideas possible.
when the weather is warm to hot and I have driven it for 4 miles or so, It really wants to die. and then if i drive it any longer it will die in the hot weather. THEN after just waiting until (it seems like cools off - because engine if not running it will start right back up and go.) in the hot weather. I know others have experienced something like this BUT I have never seen any answers that come close to my situation. thanks for your help. 914 luva |

One thing it could be is too much blow by. If all your vent hoses are connected to the intake too much blow by could be choking the engine. Try venting them to atmosphere ans see what happens.
This is what happened to my son's car. Short drives it ran fine (school and back) but anything over 30 minuets It would stall at idle and if you shut it off it would only restart after cranking for a long time with the throttle wide open. Once I vented both heads and the crankcase to atmosphere we got another year out of it before we had to replace the engine. (subaru swap) |
