Subject:      Intermittant loss of power
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I have a 90 westfalia that about once a month or so loses power after running about 2 miles. It will slow right down and stall. i can always start it right up again and it will run oK at an idle but backfire and stall if given any gas. It will do this for maybe about 2 minutes then as it gets a bit warmer it runs fine again an the problem may not happen again for weeks. I have checked for bad grounds but all looks fine . I would be grateful for any suggestions. thanks in advance. Ron Mighton Toronto,Canada Eh!
