1st - 5th Gen Honda CivicAs these Honda Civics get older and older they become harder to find in great condition and less popular to modify. By no means does this make them less of a contender on the track or car audio competition. Don't forget the roots of what made import tuning what it has become today.

I have an 82' Civic hatchback with the 1.3 motor in it. The car has just over 100K on it. This summer I have been having problems where the car will putter out and if it does quit it tends not to start up for a while. To me it sounds like vapour lock. The thing is, the car will do it if it's sitting in traffic or if it has been running at operating temp, then shut off for a few minutes and then started again.
To try and rule out other potential issues I have changed the fuel filter, air filter, set the carb and checked the timing (which wasn't out).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
