No-one has mentioned a fuel filter. I had a similar problem on a run a few years ago and ended up getting the scout car towed home at great expense only to find that it was a blocked fuel filter. Once the engine stopped the blocking sediment dropped down and after restarting and driving for a short while the sediment reblocked the filter once again. Now I carry a spare filter everwhere I go.

Can also be sediment or debris in the fuel tank, same sort of idea as the blocked fuel filter but sucking up some debris into the pick up pipe. Weird though it sounds I had this on a modern Land Rover where following some accident damage repair the body shop managed to drop a Scotchbright pad into the fuel tank resulting in exactly the symptoms you describe. I had forgotten all about it until this thread!

scout car stalls
Sorry for the delay. I just realized that I forgot to update what was wrong. The scout car was missing the Phenolic block that goes in between the Carb and the head. This was causing vapor luck. Thanks for all the help! Rob
