<div dir="ltr">Mike,<div><br></div><div>Did you drain the old fuel out and put fresh gas in? The ethanol fuels separate out and the heavy gunk that settles on the bottom does not burn! Since it is at the bottom of the tank where the pickup is, it may have been sucked through and stalled your engine. </div><div><br></div><div>Kent</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Jun 3, 2019 at 4:52 PM rrengineer.mike via Spridgets <<a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net">spridgets@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><div><br></div><div><font face="sans-serif">As some of you know I just rebuilt the entire suspension, steering and brakes on my Bugeye. Because of this the ethanol in the gas gummed up the workings of my single HIF6 carb, so I rebuilt it with a new viton tipped needle and bottom seal angle cleaned the insides out of the ethanol residue. Yesterday I started the car up and it ran better than ever for about a minute and quit. It would not start after that. I checked for spark, yes. I checked for fuel flow to the carb, yes. It has to be the carb. I have it off the car now and I am taking it apart. Any ideas of what I should be looking for?</font></div><div><font face="sans-serif">Mike MacLean</font></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div id="gmail-m_-6179159430077733916composer_signature"><div style="font-size:85%;color:rgb(87,87,87)" dir="auto">Sent from my Samsung Galaxy , an AT&T LTE smartphone</div></div></div>------------------------<br>
