Hi Greg,
Fuel filters are a good start. I would also check all of the rubber hoses
under the car. My wife's 250 had gas problems - I chased it all over the
place - New filter, new fuel pump. Finally saw one of the rubber lines
had a kink in it. It must have been bent in the same place for years, but
it finally got soft enough that when there was suction through the line it
would collapse. I suspect it could be affected by heat as well.

Hello,
I have been having problems with my Spitfire sputtering like it's running

of gas above 50 mph on hot days after it runs for a while at that speed
especially going up hill.
Thanks for any ideas.
