Re: Convert points to electic

[Dan McCormack <mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

IMHO this problem is related to today's gas which is formulated for fuel 
injected cars with closed sealed fuel systems. Our old cars all have vented 
fuel systems and carburetors. Today's gas evaporates at a much faster rate 
than the gas that was formulated for our cars to run on.

Could be the fuel is evaporating out of the carburetor over a couple
of days, so you have to wait until the fuel pump fills it back up
before the car will start.  Just over one night, there's probably
still enough in there to get it started.
