Yeah, I first thought about the cooling system. Rad and liquid were good. I am missing the fan shroud though. My mechanic replaced the thermostat and frost plugs and now the needle is steady in the middle. Not sure what degree thermostat.
Going to look into a heat shield. Manual switch fan...
Thanks guys.
*This is the new routing, I ripped out the original metal line that ran in the stock position near the middle with the clear coffee pot filter.
I will go ahead and snake the line closer to the firewall and fender panel.
Curious, where would you guys place it?
I have a stock 198 Slant six (71 Scamp)
The same story, runs like a dream on the highway, but chokes in the city.
*I've since had an Electric Fuel Pump with return line put in and re-plumbed the fuel line which solved everything :cheers:.
Would filling up with 91+ octane (no ethanol) alone...
