I know of a young s and a sedan that are kind of for sale. I was filling up my sedan at a gas station and he pulled in after me. He seems like he doesn't have time for it anymore. If it could help let me know.

Never mind. I don't think I can sell it. I went on another 300 mile trip today. It ran so well and brought such a smile to everyone's face that saw it that I don't want to be without a running and driving 360.

I think when you took the off ramp you closed the throttle & flooded the engine due to a worn or sticking needle and seat, that's why the full float bowl, but it took 10 minutes to clear the flooding from the crankcase. Ah. That does seem logical. I did take the needle out recently and clean it...
