[alfa] RE: 164 problems of Richard

["Bruce - Bruce's Parts Bin" <bruces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

so right now, the car is sitting at the local post office. i drove up, shut
it off (it was up to operating temperature on what passes for a warm day
here in september, about 70 or so degrees.) when i came back out, it didn't
want to start. it'd burble briefly (fuel + spark) and die. after it cooled
for about an hour, it'd start and idle badly for 10 seconds or so, then
die. hitting the throttle would just make it die quicker.

so what could it be? fuel filter? temp sender? something else?

Sounds like a AFM problem to me. Try to borrow another and check.
