          Mine would run, and when I drove it, it would start to sputter, and take a lot of pumping of the pedal to try and keep it running, but it would die anyway.
          Wait a while and it would start again, but then start stumbling again after a short drive. It got progressively worse within a week or 2.
          Caused me to do the weber swap! Then did it again! Finally saw the collapsing hose.
          Seems to do it after the pressure in the hose builds enough to collapse it. Doesnt do it right away.
