Engine Cutting out

[rustydiver]

This question has prob. been asked many a time.

When i stop my engine dies on me , this happens when it is cold and hot.

What is causing it?

Idle screw in carb?

Mine did that when the timing was really out (too far advanced).

But it was related to overheating - only died once it's hot, which of course was caused by the off timing...

Sorry, that's all the help I can offer.

Cheers, A.

did you check the valve settings and timing when you did the service?
is the dizzy working correctly, it could be throwing the timing out?

My money's on an air leak - probably worn/perished manifold boots or under the carb...
Good luck!
