After all the stuff I've done to the Tiger ignition-wise to get it to quit stalling, I'm finding myself starting to consider other possibilities, such as vapor lock and fuel percolation. To make a l

If you think that's the problem you can get a heat spacer that goes under the carb for about $10 through Summit. I was getting the problem when I shut down....had a hard time restarting. The spacer

I had already considered that possibility. However, I'm running an Edelbrock F4B high-rise intake and I've already measured the space between the air cleaner and the hood...no room for any kind of a

Exactly what I ran into with the same intake. The Edelbrock spacers are about 0.3". It was just enough for my stock air cleaner to hit when it cleared before. Now my hood is propped up. Would be nice

Does your exhaust system have a diverter valve to direct exhaust gases to heat the floor of the intake manifold? If so, the valve could be stuck shut. This could generate excessive heat under the ca

I have been working on some similar problems with my Tiger, low rpm feels wrong, lethargic and wanted to stall until I step on it then it goes. My problem was the after market fuel pump gave up after

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll double-check the advance on the timing before we get it out to drive tomorrow. I've already been through the fuel system and have determined that I have a good pump,

Where is your fuel line located relative to your exhaust system? Has it been moved or bumped somehow and is now closer to your hot exhaust manifold? When I restored my Tiger I placed my fuel filter

Good question. I haven't noticed any difference in where the fuel line is compared to where it was the last time I saw it, but it's worth a look. Thanks, Andy moved or bumped somehow and is now clos

Guys: First of all, thanks a million for all the great suggestions I received while working on the stalling problem with my Tiger. As of last Saturday, it looks like we might have it figured out. I w
