THIS seems an appropriate spot to interject a question:

My 73 charger is suffering from heat soak on the carb: the bowls will boil out and flood the engine after it is shut off. Makes it tough to crank unless it first cools off completely.

I noticed the fuel pump gets quite warm, and thought it might be heating the fuel, adding to the problem. I got some insulative tubing to slide over the fuel line, and a Carter electric pump of the same style which has been faithfully fueling my 64 C-10 for about ten years.

BUT, this discussion has me double thinking. Advice?
