have you checked for vapor lock? a non vented radiator cap
on the fuel tank will cause problems. how do you have the
dashboard carb adjustment set?1 1/4 turns is a good place
to start. fuel flow good? disconect from the carb and check.
fuel screen clear? rust in the gas tank can block off flow
also.if you have a replacement distribuor cap is the
firing sequence right?have you checked the condensor?might
try a replacement just in case.
luck
