not sure this experience may be related to the problem you HAD, but this
just happened to our caravan back from Hudson, Wisc. with a T/R. When in
any stop & start traffic this "6" would just get a very quick vapor lock
due to the fuel lines being so close to the manifolds, let it cool down
and away we would go. Once we used cold water from the coolers and it did
the job. The vapor lock just stopped the flow of gas to the carb. and she
would just cut off, starved for gas, may be the same thing with yours.
