74 spider won't run when hot
Hi!
the first place to look for the problem you
discribe is the fuel pumps. what does the
electric fuel pump sound like? if you open
the gasoline filler cap can you hear the extra
fuel being returned to the tank? that pump or
its filter can cause the engine to run really
badly or not at all if it's not supplying enough
fuel, or enough fuel pressure to the Spica pump.
the Spica pump i've found can cause similar problems
if, particularly in hot weather, i use fuel of low
quality or fuel which contains ethanol, or it's
worn out, which allows some fuel to get into the oil
sump.
