Reply to "Running hot...vapor locked twice - Any suggestions?"

@ Danny...thanks Danny, I'll check them out.  I went with electronic ignition a couple years ago.  Let me look at the coil.

@ Mitch  As for the questions, yes, I always pull right over for a cool down, but these were pretty immediate loss of fuel, then died.  I never let the car "fully" cool down to see if it would run ok after as we were on the side of busy roads both times so I went with the "spray the piss out of carb cleaner in both carbs until it fired" mode just to get it off the road.  After it fired up, it ran well at high speed for another 10+ minutes until we were home.  It's never happened before and I did just put Seafoam in the tank so I'm betting it released some crap into the carbs.  Oh, I did also replace the fuel filter with a glass one.

Thanks guys!
