Hi Guys

Thanks for the reply.
I dont believe it to be a sending unit or gas line problem. The car runs great and idles great. it only seems to happen when i have driven the car and it has warmed up. She cranks over nice. The fuel line is nowhere near any heat. I was wondering if it could be a fuel/idle mixture problem? If the car was running to rich would it put too much fuel into the carb? I'm running with a pertronix pointless system. I dont have a flame thrower coil or anything else. If i was to go out now and start the car she would start right up after a couple of cranks.

Regards

Steve
