The good news: I got a new 40!! Found a 1978 that's in damn fine condition; one owner, 46,000 original miles, good top (has never been removed...this won't last long). I'm jumping outta my shoes!! Drives like a champ.
My question is this: Whenenver I shut the engine off after it's been running for 10 minutes or so, the engine sputters and chugs for a while and then makes this loud "WHOOOOSH!!!" sound before it stops all together. It's more than just a whoosh, but that's the best I can come up with! It can be pretty loud....and doesn't happen unless it's been running for about 5-10 minutes or more. The Cruiser has the stock 2F but it looks like the previous owner put a Weber carb on recently. (The choke cable is cut and laying next to the carb, and there is a wire coming out of what I thought was the were the choke hooks up.....is this an electronic choke?)
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
