I need to check that. My father had a truck that would vapor lock from that very thing on a hot day pulling a grade at altitude. When this decides to poop out it almost acts like the truck did. Little to no throttle response mostly rattles a little with throttle input. Only thing it usually fires back up before you get to a complete stop if you were at speed over 45 or so. It quit on me one time 2 seconds after pulling away from a stop light and it was hard to restart until I floored the gas while cranking it, then iy lit up.

I just got the car a few weeks ago and this is my first repro cobra so I don't really know how it was built or where anything is at... Learning quickly though, unfortunately!
