Too many projects
My head is too swamped with stress and school to figure this problem out right now, but I am daily driving the car so I need you guys to diagnose this for me.
The car is a 65 Valiant, engine is a 273, 2bbl, auto tranny. Electronic ignition. Previous owner rebuilt the motor, did the rings and bearings, about 3 years ago.
It's been running great the whole time, and I've done general maintenance on it.
Ok, start it up in the morning, and let it warm up for about 10 - 15 minutes. It immediately goes to a high idle due to automatic choke, and when I kick it down, it runs OK, and then wants to stall. I don't kick it down right away, I give it time to warm up. It's about 3 degrees Celcius in the mornings here.
Once I've been driving for 5 - 10 minutes, the idle is back to normal (somewhat), without stalling issues. It just seems that it's stalling a lot lately where it never used to. It doesn't stall at all in the high idle. Any ideas? If you need more info, I'll gladly give it.
