[Healeys] Rough running

[Keith Pennell]

Two days ago I took the BJ8 out for its every-four-month exercise.  Just as before it ran beautifully for the first 8 or so miles then began to develop a miss.  Temp gauge around 180 and ambient temp 80-82 F.  When I stopped for some photo taking it would not restart (as I was afraid it would).  Temp gauge above 220.  After a 20 minute cooling off and allowing the temp to drop below 200 it reluctantly restarted, still with a miss, and I hurried on home.Any thoughts on what is the cause of this behavior?
