Hot start problems with B20B in a 122


I had this happen to me on a 122 and a 164.

On the 122, it turned out that one of the carbs was much
richer and the throttle was opening sooner than the other.
Sorting that out fixed that problem.

The other was that the points were no longer opening. A
couple seconds with sandpaper fixed that and it's been fine
since.

I'd fix the carbs and / or keep a fire extinguisher within
easy reach.
