Need help ! I am recently experiencing starting problem after driving a short while. The engine will stop or after stopping will not start again,,,but wait a hour or so and will start again. Its a 35 Ford roadster with 39 V-8 with Mallory electronic dist, twin NEW stromberg carbs on Edmunds intake, Eldebrock heads and electric fuel pump. Did run great at first (100 miles of short trips) but last 2 runs were not good.... Any ideas...fuel pump working and pressure set at 3 psi...Any help would be appreciated..thanks Steve G.
