I have a 1973, 1.7 with FI still on it. The car is stalling at idle after the engine warms up. Any ideas what to adjust or look for? Things that may be contributing, but not sure. I think there is a vaccum leak. It smells like it is running rich. I recently replaced the fuel pump.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Terry |

check the dwell angle first, closed points make many assume that they have a fuel injection problem. After that check to see that the engine is running on all four cylinders then check to see if the pressure sensor is leaking vacuum causing too rich a mixture
