Got it started, but then it stalled. Help!

Post by rossvw »

Hi all,

First, thanks for the posts replying to my coil wiring question, I got everything straigtened out and the ignition system is in working order.

I Cranked the key over today after getting everything straightened out, and she started!

Then she stalled.

I've got the 1.05L HZ with Pierburg 1B3 Carb & Automatic Choke. If I pump the gas a few times and start the car, the engine will run and then stall. The more pumps I give before ignition, the longer it will run. The fewer, the shorter. If I don't pump the gas at all before turning the key, the car won't fire at all.

The auto choke and cutoff solenoid both have power when the key is on.

The two way valve (idle speed boost control) has a plug going into it, but no power at either pin. Should it? It is pictured here:

Any advice? Thanks in advance!
