[Tigers] Symptoms again

[Stu]

I think we have a winner.

Was it Fuel flow?  It did this before in the spring.  I immediately tested
this by running a hose from the pre carb filter to a can.  Good flow, my
Facet was pumping like crazy.  And the float level, rechecked this spring,
is right on.  So that isn't it.

Was it Ignition, maybe with some condensation?  Back in the spring I used a
spray bottle to soak the coil, cap, wires, etc. and then tried to start
it.  No problem

Also, both tonight and in the spring, the car started and idled fine after
a couple hours.

So I think Gary nailed it.  His description matches perfectly.  Despite my
running the carb dry before putting it away for more than a day, stuff in
the carb gets gummed up.  Reintroducing fuel for a few hours dissolves the
crud and normal operation is restored.
