1965 356 cuts out when warm
Need a little help! A friend of mine has a 1965 356C with the standard engine and carbs. The car starts and drives fine for the first 1/2 or so then loses power and will hardly run. Cool it off and all is fine for about 1/2 hour and then the same. I just need ideas as to were to start and look. This is a far cry from my
911's! Thanks, Jeff

Fuel related: - Possible fuel starvation due to clogged filter or rust accumulating on the screen in the tank.
Electrical related: -Possibly the coil overheating and providing a weak spark. I'm betting on the coil.... |

Fuel pump related, it runs after it cools down. If it were dirt or rust in the tank or filter it would not get better if it cools down.
