Another road trip emergency!

Post by memsiej »

Oy vey.
It's 100 degrees here. We stopped for lunch and when we started it again it started then died after 5 seconds. Then it wouldn't start- had a really bad grinding noise and I saw there was fuel pooled under the carb. Checked around and couldn't see where it was coming from. Had someone try to start it and I couldn't see fuel coming out. After a few nasty sounding cranks it started, but I'm worried. What was up? Safe to drive? Thoughts?
