B20 030 Weber - Dies when hot- any advice?

posted by  someone claiming to be MikeM on  Mon Mar 4 07:57 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Hello-
I've got a B20 .030 with an IPD single weber (DGV I think) kit installed. It has recently been stalling and hesitating when the engine heats up. As in driving for 30 min or so in the city. The car dies, and then will not restart (crank no fire). I leave it overnight and it fires right up the next day. I know there are some problems with this carb overheating and causing vaporlock, immatating an engine starved for fuel. Does the symptom match this explination? I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem, or better yet, knows a solution (other than junking the weber). Would changing the jet size help this situation? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
