    Awesome video, thank you! As a fellow Floridian and first-time old Mustang owner: I am having the same issue.
    If you've driven around this blistering hot summer, how have you found the spacer to have worked so far?

    Greast Video. I have owned my 72 Supreme Convertible for 30 years and having the same issue. I tried stacking 2 of the composite gaskets together as I had an extra with a rebuilt carb I got with the car. Helped some but did not correct it. I will order this gasket and try it. I see your dashpot is missing the plunger. My original fell apart last year when I rebuilt the my original carb. Can"t seem to find the correct replacement.

      Here is the dash pot you need www.ebay.com/p/179055168 . However it wont be useful if you put on the thick spacer like I did. The carb will not align with it anymore.

    Nice ride! Good job nothings ever a bolt on! I'm having a similar issue. I'm wondering what your thoughts are now. Did the spacer help? Did you have to readjust idle mixture? Thank you.

      Yes the spacer took care of the carburetor issue when starting a hot car that has been sitting over 10 minutes. I don't remember having to readjust the carburetor after, but I may have, I just don't remember now.

    Which kit was it that came with the studs? I’ve got the same Q jet

      It was the Edelbrock 8726 Carburetor Spacer kit. I bought it on Amazon.

    I hope you’re not trying to educate people how to do it on the concrete
