Hi all,
My BT7, which I've owned for 32 years, has developed an annoying problem this summer, which I am struggling to solve.
The car starts fine and runs well, but after 30 mins or so on a drive the car wants to stall everytime the car comes to stop. I assume the problem is either spark or fuel related. There is never a problem with restating the car after the stall or when the car was traveling at speed so I've sort of ruled out fuel evaporation (not previouly an issue for my UK based car) or fuel starvation in my own mind (perhaps a mistake). The car ticks over nicely at idle when I start my journey but wants to stall when I finish.
I am running a traditional points set up on the car.
Does anyone have any suggestions before I start trouble shooting?
Thanks
Phil
