I bought a 1967 GT500 once that wouldn't run long. Ran fine then quit. I pulled the fuel tank and dumped it out into a tub. There was literally a large soggy handful of flowers and grass clippings in the tank.

I remember reading that one of the FIA cars in Europe had stopped running during a race and it appeared the fuel system was clogged with a cloth like material. |
