T3s (well, at least those with-- ahem, sorry to say the word--carburetors) have historically had a problem with vapor locking due to heat. Had an early Fastback for my wife once, and she became quite reliable at carrying a gallon of water and very skillful at knowing just exactly where to pour the water on the fuel pump. I don't think you need Evian pure spring de-mineralized effervescent water... just fill a gallon jug from your tap, store the jug somewhere in the car, and you're ready to roll! Of course, this vapor locking may be limited to those of us in the desert Southwest. Gets aő±gŚot down here, especially in Arizona. I heard that a drop of rain hit James MacNaughton on the forehead, he fainted, and it took two buckets of sand to revive him!
