I took another gander around the engine bay and while tugging on the vacuum booster hose by the carb I saw that the idle-solenoid shut off was rather loose. I tightened it up back to the carb, about 3/4 of a turn. I know it is supposed to stop run-on but maybe it thought the engine was off when I was pulling up to the stops with a warm engine, low rpm, and it just cut off fuel? Joe, I run a pertronix unit in place of the points. It all checked out as normal at the tune-up. I will take it for a drive this weekend, it still has a lot of wedding stuff in it, we had her packed to the gills. She is my daily driver so I am excited to get back on the road. Does my hypothesis make any sense at all?
