My 318 is still having issues starting when warm. It's a mild 318 with eddy intake and 600cfm electric choke carb. Just today it was doing it. Went for a drive, shut the car off for maybe ten minutes. Without pumping the gas just turning the key it wouldn't fire, just crank. I pumped the pedal a couple times and still just kept cranking and wouldnt catch. I assume I flooded it then so I let it sit for a minute. This carb seems to flood rather easily. I finally got it going. I should also mention that I installed a edelbrock heat gasket between the carb and intake. Dosn't seem to have had any effect at all. Cranks fine dosn't sound weak. What else could be causing this? The coil is a new MSD blaster 2, wires are taylor and plugs are autolite 66.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
