Re: [DML] Dies at stoplights

Your problem is more than likely related to a problem in the constant idle speed circuit. 

Concerning your battery; any standard size name brand battery that will fit in the battery compartment with side mounted connector posts should give satisfactory performance.

Subject: [DML] Dies at stoplights


#10901 has developed an idling problem this last month. When I put in the
clutch and roll to a stop, the idle drops and the motor dies.
I remember the old carburated cars had a solenoid next to the carburator
that would hold the idle high for a couple of seconds when the throtle was
closed, is there something like this on a fuel injected system that should
be holding the idle up for a couple of seconds when the gas pedal is
released?

Also, it looks like the battery has bit the dust, guess I'll be going to
look for a new one today, any recommendations?

Thanks,
Jack Janney
