It is 80 degrees this morning and I just rechecked my engine vacuum line, filter, etc work from yesterday. One vacuum line going into the front of the carb was replaced with a new one but could have taken a smaller size. I replaced that one this morning with a smaller size much tighter fitting one and took a little trip up the highway. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL, and in fact seemed to be running a little smoother. So from this, if not all the problem, the temp is a problem, and maybe that tighter fitting vacuum line helped. Still scared of it. Going to give the in line filter a look see if it exists and replace or install just for peace of mind. I was also running the dash air yesterday when it started and after a couple of episodes, turned it off to get home. Home never looked so good. I could just envision me having it towed 2 miles home.

Bob and Sandra,
Intake has been blocked off since 2002 when I put in the new engine.
EFI is really a high dollar fix. $1.275.00 last time I checked. There has
to be something cheaper. I,m trying to call John Shapre for more info
on his suggestion. Lines busy
Charles
