My TR3 runs great,no issues except one.
On a hotter day say over 80 if I shut the car off and then restart after sitting about 20-30 min. the car starts up easy but wont idle and runs rough for about 30 seconds and then goes back to normal smooth idle.If it sits longer it doesnt happen.If I shut the car off for few minutes it doesnt happen.
Today I came home let it sit about 20,same symptom.Water temp gauge crept from 185 to 200.Infared temp gum showed intake manifold 170,float bows about 115,I pulled off one bowl top and fuel was about 3/4 full.I think gas may be vaporizing or flashing until the manifold cools down but not sure.
Any input appreciated.
