And now that I think about it the times its stalled have been when Ive let go of the throttle so the idle was probably a bit low, I did increase that though but I think I overdid it alittle.
Guess Ill put a new 6 plug in it and see if I can lean it on both ends and then maybe decrease the idle just alittle from my previous adjustment and see where that takes me.
I dont have the car inhere so I cant see what the needles are like, but I know the lowspeed is probably a millimeter or so in from flush.
Usually my low is about flush or slightly in or out and the high speed is about .5mm in. You might be way too lean on bottom and too rich on top.
