Anyone have an idea why my 81 will idle fine for the first few
minutes, and then won't idle at all after that?  Also when I disconnect
the head temp sender next to #3 it won't even start.
     I have replaced the AFM with a rebuilt one and changed the
distributor to one where the plug for the hall sender isn't hanging down
on the tin.
    The motor only has about 50k on a rebuild and when I rev it up it
seems strong and healthy,  I would like to keep it from the clutches of
the dreaded dealer so any help is great appreciated.
