Car wants to die at idle in drive
I got my timing set today. The thing idles like a champ in park or neutral but when I come to a complete stop in drive it ALMOST wants to die out.
Its a 305, MSD Streetfire dizzy, mechanical qjet.

Re: Car wants to die at idle in drive
Well just fyi I got this cleared up. Turns out my qjet is jetted for something much much bigger than the little 305 its on. I had to crank the Idle Air Bleed Valves 9-1/2 turns each and its idling like a champ at 500rpms.
