Hot engine starting problem
Ok here's how it goes
I have a 1984 Ford Mustang GT that is 5.0 v8 H.O with a carburator.....I bought the car without and intake and carb so I threw in a edelbrock intake and performer carb and the car sat for 5 years. Well I got it running just fine..starts easily...running smoothly and purrs like a kitten. The problem I am having is that when I drive it for a mile it will just kill for no apparent reason and not start...I crank it and it revs up and dies. Here is a list of parts I have replaced, Cap, Rotor, Ignition Module Box, Cleaned up the connector for the voltage regulator and I know I don't have any stray wires. After letting it cool down it wil start perfectly...any ideas what could be causing it? I think the alternator is shot from sitting too long...cause when I drive the car it just drains the battery.
