Title: RPM dips when clutch is pushed in
Post by: 94daves on May 25, 2018, 11:38:06 AM
The typical idling RPM at a stoplight is just over 1,000 for my car.  Lately when I push in the clutch as I approach a light, the RPMs dip to 500 and then go up to just over 1,000.  The car almost dies when the RPMs dip this low.  Why does it do this?  I don't remember it doing it last year before I put it away for the winter.  Thanks.

I wonder if your idle valve is a bit sticky - maybe a run a little carb cleaner thru it?
