Rob, glad it is running well.
Your garage looks great as usual! My garage is more like a display case than a proper workshop. Although in fine weather I have lots of light! The time change really put a dent in everything but being able to have both cars on wheels is a triumph for me!
<IMG_0927.jpeg><IMG_7182.jpeg> Rob What a relief to hear it wasn’t catastrophic! Also, even though you are old with bad eyesight, you’re smart enough not to light a match to see the liquid in the cylinders! Forza! John Sent from my iPhone On Nov 25, 2019, at 2:11 PM, Hans E.

Might have a leaky carb needle valve, or bad float. Might check that.... Could also be responsible for that low speed stumble if too much fuel getting in there.
Had an old Corvette once that had a leak in the float. Low speed stumbling/drivability was the tip off.

I apologize, I though I sent out a detailed explanation on what happened:
False Alarm. I went out to find out what was up and it wasnt coolant but gas that flooded the cylinders. It was late, I am old, and dont have good lights in garage, and also I was freaking out when the engine seized. Hoping I did not bend a rod. The next day I took out all the plugs and ran it for 30 seconds. Washed it then took it on a 30 mile trip. Clutch feels perfect, car stumbles a bit on take off, need to address that. Nice to have both twins running again!!!
I apologize but even though I have 2 GT4’s in over 25 years of ownership and having the other car apart or on stands at least 25 times, I never had this experience or anything like this.
Rob
