rough idle when warm

I have an 88, 13B, NA.

When I first start it up, it runs fine, but once it reaches temp, the idle is so rough it usually stalls. It runs fine, as long as you keep the RPM up.

I don't get any codes off of the computer, and I can't find any vacuum leaks with ether.

The car has new plugs. I have set the timing. Any ideas what this might be?

Try adjusting your idle. Read the section in the FSM that deals with idle.

Please update me on your idle problem - what caused problem and how did you fix it.

Check BAC value as it maybe bad.

Thanks,
