Update III

I took the car for a short test drive (4-5 miles) and by the time I got back, the throttle had locked up once more. I now am pretty sure it is thermal related. It is always the left rear carb that locks up...Even with all of the linkage disconnected.

I am in Central Texas and the temp, I am sure is in the 90's.

Does anyone have any ideas/solutions (even temp solutions) for this. I am still 80 miles from home and would really like to get the car back home so I can repair it correctly.

I guess I'll wait until the sun goes down, or mybe first thing in the morning when its cooler to try it out.

Thanks,

Gun Doc
