Do your coolant fans stay on after the motor is shut down? If yes they have no where to move the air and it stay under the hood. Try this and report back. Rick L.

i have louvers in the good on both sides of the carbs so I have good air flow. I will try the fan meathod tonight and see what it does.
Talked with Barry today and we both think it is a carb fuel issue.
