[T3] Rocks in a tin can sound

[Paul Fortner]

My first thoughts are fuel related concerns.

Weak fuel pump, fuel filters, carb floats (make be sticking)

Just thoughts not a guaranteed remedy.

Rocks in a tin can, may be loose lug nuts in a wheel cover

Hello  everyone,

I checked ignition and all is well.  There seems to be  fuel, carbs are
squirting.  But, after it sat for a couple of hours,  it fired right up and
proceeded to die before running for 5 minutes.   But, it ran great those
five
minutes.  What do you think?  Vapor  lock?  It's a nice, cool day here in
Nebraska.  Again, it cranks  but won't fire.

Confused,
Dan




Clogged fuel filter or tank outlet sock?
