[DMCForum] car cold, low idle, runs rough --> car warm, high idle, runs good



Basically, my mixture screw was adjusted last summer by a garage, when I
had trouble getting the car running again after installing a new
distributor, rotor, wires and plugs.

Ever since then. the car will run rough when its cold and idle around
850, it honestly sounds like it will STALL if I don't pop the
accelerator once and a while

Once the car is warm, it idles around 1500 and runs fine


What adjustments can I tweak to correct this problem

As of now, I am 99% sure the timing is correct (checked it with a timing
light)

As well, the mixture screw is not TOTALLY out of whack, but if I had to
guess it has something to do with this

Also, the 3 brass screws are not adjusted at all, they are simply
snugged down by hand


Thank you
Kenneth
