[T3] 1971 fuel injected fastback

Have you changed the Voltage Regulator yet? Just asking, as than can cause that to happen. Low voltage equals a rich condition.

Subject: [T3] 1971 fuel injected fastback

My 1971 fuel injected fasttback is giving me problems!  Everything looks good and seems to checkout good, valve adjustment is ok, idle when started is ok, belt is not slipping, plugs and points are good.

Here is the problem, car starts right up and runs great for 20 to 25 minutes at different speeds.  After that it will die when slowing down for a stop sign or traffic light.  When this happens it is real hard to get started again and acts almost like it is starving for fuel.

My thoughts have been that it is overheating, an ignition problem or fuel problem (filter or pump).  I have pretty much ruled out overheating.

I am not sure where to go next, looking for some help!  Thank you.
The Bentley hasn’t been a lot of help.
