<VV> ethanol problems

[Joel McGregor]

My '63 with early carbs is too rich so it runs pretty good with bad accelerator pumps but it won't hot start.  It it's fully warmed up.  It won't restart after the engine dies.  It starts fine cold because the chokes are on.  Needless to say I replace the cups when this starts happening.

The other thought that jumped out at me was why not just remove the leather
cup entirely?  He would not have the benefit of the extra fuel on a hard
acceleration and might stumble a bit off the line, but if it is a nearly
stock 64, my guess is he probably isn't driving it that hard anyway.
