86 gl won't stay ilding


Recommended Posts

I just took my car through DEQ and it passed with flying colors! Oh it is a 86 gl carbed wagon. It always started great and run great, but it just started to die and now won't idle. Acts like the choke doesn't want to work and you keep the rpms up or it will die. I'm stuck any help out there? Thanks Portland

Oh yeah! I forgot. In order to rotate the whole choke spring housing, you will need pop off the little tab on the flange that housing bolts to. It's easy to knock it off with a screwdriver and hammer. Or you could get in there with a little file, but the metal is so soft, the *chisel* method works great.
