So this is the second time out, fuel leak repaired. About 30 miles out, there was a wreck on the road so everyone was going about 3 miles a hour.
Then all of a sudden the engine staled. Pulled off the road and started the engine back up. Pulled back out, and again it stalled. During this time the electric fuel pump was making a lot of noise like the tanks where empty. I would estimate road temp at maybe 90dg. When it was stalling, if I pumped the gas peddle I could stop the stall, some times. Once I got some speed up, the fuel pump sounded better, and problem went away.
This happened two more times during the trip to the state park, where I am typing this. Ever time it was when I slowed down at a light or to turn.
Once I got to the park where the road are shaded, I was able to go slow and had no problems.
