Hi all,

I am have trouble with the idle on my SII. The car has a SV engine with
Zenith carbs. I have never rebuilt them. The problem is that when the car
is warmed up it will not idle correctly. This is what happens: if I drive
up to a stop light I put in the clutch and the car idles at 1500rpm for a
few seconds and then drops to such a low idle that the car usually dies,
some times it comes back up to 1500rpm. The car has an electric fuel pump
with a regulator. I tested the system and the pressure is about 1.5-2psi.
I plan on rebuilding the carbs soon but I don't what to over look any thing
that might fix the problem.

Thanks,

Cole
