howdy,

i've had this 280 2+2 for awhile. i've really got it running about as good as it has ever run in 25 plus years. 2 questions for all you guys that know way more than me about these rice rockets (70's term) than i do. whenever i run this dude after it sits it vapor locks if you start while still warm. if i leave the hood unlatched it seems to help. very annoying. Also, the fuel mix seems to change randomly but slowlt changes back and forth. run's best when cold. i think it needs new connectors on all electrical anything. it's very clean but i am getting pissed about the random performance of this monster. it's got new f'in everything .... help expert Z people

If, "it's got new f'in everything ....", then why does it need new connectors?

 

Let's start with a simple question, is the engine completely stock?

 

Also, clear concise sentences with proper punctuation will go along way on this forum.
