So,  after a winter of tinkering and repairing various things on my 65, 
including  installation of a donor motor, I have a situation where the car does not 
like  to start when hot. Starts like a champ every time when cold and runs 
good  otherwise. Have to crank a while with my foot to the floor to get it to 
start  once its hot. This morning, I started it cold and disconnected the 
throttle  linkage so I could see how each carb responded to throttle increase. The 
left  carb responded fine, but the right carb loafed and a little black smoke 
came  out of the exhaust until everything evened out. I have adjusted chokes 
per  manual specs and both choke coils on the heads are new and work fine. So, I 
 don't think I have a choke problem. Could this be that the gas is 
evaporating  out of the bowls after driving and need to be refilled so that the car will 
 start hot (thus, the foot to the floor during cranking)? Or, could this be  
related to float level in the right crab (or both)? I'm sure this qu
estion  has been asked before, but any help would be greatly appreciated! 
Thanks and  Happy Easter!
