71 with 74 F2 with XR700 Fireball ignition
Was driving along at 40mph when it died. Popped the clutch and it started . kept driving.
About 8 miles later at a stop sign it died again. This time it wouldn't start. I checked fuel flow at the carb and looked for loose wires. Plenty of fuel and no loose wires.
Sat for about 10 minutes contemplating calling for a tow but tried to start it. Ity fired right up!
Took off down a freeway ramp, accelerated to about 50...and it died. Popped the clutch again and it started up. I was approaching a narrow no room to pull over section of freeway, so I pulled over on a side row and called for a tow. When he dropped me off at home I fired it up and parked it.
I can't find anything obvious. A friend suggested a vapor lock, but there was no altitude issue...driving from 30' to maybe 2000' and back down.
I replaced the coil about 4 months ago.
does anyone have any suggestions for trouble shooting?
