This weekend i was running auto cross temp was about 96 (on the asphault 110+) humidity96% (thats louisiana) had just started my engine and pulled in line had it running for about 30 sec to a min shut it off (did not want to over heat) . waitedabout 2 min went to restart. It would not start after cranking for about 2 to 3 min i hit the gas and tried again. pushed back into pits. Though i had lost fire but after shocking myself decided that i probrobly flooded it (things get flooded easy in new orleans, Ha ha). after a bout 4 hours of sitting it finally cranked. had heavy oil on plug and strong smell of gas on plug. Someone suggested I vapor locked the engine. Just woundering if that was the case and how do you avoid it. He said when that happens in canada that put a large piece of ice on the engine next to the carbs and that usually takes care of it.
