Dave may be thinking that the engine is tightening up from too close of a
piston/cyl fit....

 how about some details on how it was overhauled and what parts were
replaced,
 ie; new jugs? sleeved? etc?

 Hello everyone,

I have a problem with my 69 Ambassador that someone may be able to help
me
 
 on. It has recently been overhauled and runs beautifully. I have put a
few
 
 hundred miles on it since then. It would be safe to say that I havent
ridden
 
 it for more than 20 minutes at one time with no problems. I was out
riding
 
 the other day for maybe twice that long, ran great, came home and it died
in
 
 the driveway and would not restart. I let it sit a couple minutes and it
popped right off. It would then run real nice, and then die after a few
seconds and once again, would not restart. I flipped the gascap up to
make
 
 sure that wasnt the problem. Does this sound like a bad coil? Does anyone
have a spare they would sell??

Thanks,
Scott
