I had something similar to mine happen...after school one day I went to start her up with the choke as usual...she would run until I killed the choke and the engine was warm...then nothing...spudder and my engine would die



We had to take her to a local mechanic...something to do with a valve in the idle circuit...it would have cost too much to fix so he just put a piece of hose to bridge the gap



I can tell you one thing tho...if you have the cash find someone to put a carb kit on your car...tune it...the whole works...anything to get rid of those bloody valves and switches the japs put on our carbs



just be sure it includes a fuel pump if you end up doing that someday...from what I hear the stock pump is a POS

Do Like I did ...





Stripp all the emissions off..vacums....air pump etc..

Throw away your intake and carb...

Get a Racing Beat intake and Holley 600 mechanical secondary..double pumper..

Get a header while your at it ..

Go get a Holley Blue fuel pump with regulator ..cause stock pumps push like 4 psi of fuel...



The throttle cable braket I made out of a alternator braket.



man to much to list.....on what to do ...but its alot better than the stock set up..



unless you car about gas milage or emissoins

thanks I will have to try that.

I also have a question. What turbo Muff. should I use for my 85 GL? Mine got all bent up. I got rear ended by a bmw.

RotaryRookie,

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak. I had a similar problem when I removed my carb. My cat is removed, and I am running with a straight pipe w/out a presilencer. A presilencer will reduce your exhaust noise (mine's a little too loud for my liking). If your cat is removed check to see if you have a vacuum leak from the back passenger side of your carb. There should be a small blocking plate there where a metal tube would have been feeding air into the cat. This might be where your vacuum leak is. Mazdatrix, or RacingBeat sell various block-off plates for those of us who remove the emissions stuff from our X's.
