odd idle problem
well, what happens is the car will run fine, idles around 900 right now, but occasionally, for about 5 minutes it will want to idle at 100-200.. it will be very choppy and die sometimes, but after about 5 minutes it will be back to normal. any ideas on my problem? im thinking theres a solinoid that is opening a vacume line that is leaking, but then again i can disconnect my brake booster line and it will hardly drop the rpms and thats a pretty hefty vacume line. any suggestions will be thanked!
what i have tried-
cleaned up the carb
got new plugs
got new filter
checked for sparks
checked for loose cables to the coils
checked the dizzy
its a 1980,12a, racing beat exhaust
