    81 Cordoba, $3000 Michigan Facebook

    car stalls when first put in drive. dies on sharp turns. 2bbl 318 Gran Fury

    With the lean burn deleted, that vac line might not go anywhere now. Adjusting the choke pull off spring and idle really is just a couple of screws and bending a "spring" that is more like a clip It does look like you have the choke thermostat off the Holley. I think the arm is too long on...

    I think you have an issue with the choke and an issue with the fast idle setting. If you get a service manual it'll walk you through it. You can substitute the goofy special chrysler tool the manual recommends with a flat head screw driver and your eyeball

    The choke should be closed a little bit, not wide open, if the engine is cold. Link: Choke Pull-off

    Here's a good break down on chokes and it's specific to our cars: Choke Pull-off

    If it's only opening a little bit, even when the engine is hot, the choke pull off isn't working or the choke thermostat has jammed the choke. It should be wide open when the engine is hot. Otherwise you're running rich and flooding it at hot start ups. The stalling in reverse I think is a...
