idling issue

Post by Aaronrichie »

I've recently bought a 1986 1.9l water-cooled T25 and discovered today that it has trouble idling when the engine is hot (seems to occur after about 20 mins of driving) and causes me to stall at traffic lights etc but runs perfectly if I don't come to a stop, it's strange that the engine will idle nicely when I first start it with a cold engine. Any help/advice on this matter would be very much appreciated!

Thanks, 
Aaron

I had something similar viewtopic.php?t=176316
likely ok when cold as choke is open, was on mine. Take out the jet you can see on top of the carb when you take the filter off give it a good clean. Might solve the issue. Good luck
