ok, drives great, engine very smooth. but after a couple of miles, sometimes less, it just sputters a little and dies. when i pump the gas numerous times, there is no gas getting to the carb... no smell of gas and none seeping around the intake. replaced fuel pump and the filter that goes into the carb. didn't help. what am i missing. could this be a vapor lock problem? never done this in the 2 years i've had it and it's been on one long trip and a few shorter ones with no problems. i'm stumped. considering just putting on an electric fuel pump, pulling the filter going into the carb, and installing an inline filter somewhere else and see what happens. any other thoughts or ideas?
thanks in advance!
