I am waiting for the first tank to run through but when shes hot I must kill the engine with the gear box..
Possbly carbon hot spots in cylinder heads igniting bad gas..
KCraft says check timing and gas..
may have to install solenoid on idle valve..
I have tried shutting fuel pump 2 minutes before I park but thats no way to count on a good outcome.
All good though...actually Incredible high each drive..hope it never ends!
Any other suggestions on cure?

With Mark living in the SF Bay Area, I'm sure Keith didn't build a lot of compression into his 468. Also, Mark probably didn't drive it much, so timing and gas is an excellent start. I'd check the spark plugs and wires too just to make sure those are good. Also, make sure your cooling system and fan are functioning properly.
