[QUOTE="deadpool1, post: 440941, member: 21229"] is hot idle 800 RPM or random or too low. or as the HOOD EPA sticker shows for hot idle. as you drive and you shift to neutral ,does car now coast easy (normal) ? flat ground??? if not brakes drag or as we say worse (axle bearings shot) or parking brake seized up like mine were (day1 owned ,last summer) Ive never seen any 30 year old carb , that works right, (I never cured) they do not exist. and parts for them are crazy rare so enforces bad. my guess no[B] BRAKE[/B] issues, do not break the Brakes. my guess is carb failing.! (lean out caused) top cause is metering needles jammed on BBD carb (if still has it) why not post a photo of the carb so we can see the all so common hacks there. a photos can be worth 1000 words, try it? I think the next year had the electric metering system. no 87 but , gee car mfg. plants change what it there in July each year. so vin plate covers that. [/QUOTE]
