It seems I was deleted after the list crashed last month - I'll not take=
 it
personally.  Thanks to Randall for his help.

I'd be interested in the list's thoughts on the following:  my TR3 runs =
fine
when first started, but after sitting a while when started again, it run=
s
for a few seconds, then seems to go to 3, or even 2, cylinders.  The res=
ult
of this is either that it clears itself out and again runs fine, or we
encounter a "stranded by the side of the road" situation.  Each time thi=
s
has happened, it has been a hot day and the car has been left in the sun=
.

Thinking this was vapor lock, I re-routed the gas line and installed a h=
eat
shield, but it continues to happen.  Questions: (a) could this be someth=
ing
OTHER than vapor lock? and (b) if it is vapor lock, what next?  Coat the=

manifold?
