I was interested in the 'additive' that our fuel had but nobody seemed to be able to say what it was......
It is possible it was "winter" fuel, its vapor point is lower than "summer" fuel, so vapor lock could well be possible, or vacuum in the tank, after a while idling there is again enough air in the tank and it will move again, had that with an Austin Ambulance were the breather pipe of 1 feultank was stuck with paint idling was no problem, but driving was a problem, you can test it by driving some distance and then open de fuel cap, when it opens with a "plop" you found the problem.
