140L woes

 What about the clunk line?Could it have a hole in the line at low fuel level.Is the clunk free to move, etc? Maybe the landing attitude allows the hole to draw air??
I have a DZ that quits whenever it wants to and I can't figure it out either. I have done all the things I can think of also. Good luck.

> Joe has an L that ran great last year.  This year, it has been overhauled(needed).  The problem is the engine dies only on landing approach.  Not during a spin, stall turn, or idling on the ground.  In fact, prior to takeoff it will idle extremely well, for 5-6 minutes, only at the end of the flight, with fuel, it dies about 5 ft high.  It doesn't matter how fast the idle is advanced either.
