Rough Idle and shuts off when braking
seiferzero posted a topic in Trouble Shooting / General Engine
So I have a 1975 280z that if I turn it on and let it sit it idles just fine, but as soon as I press the brakes it starts to idle very roughly and if I hold the brake down long enough without stepping on the gas it eventually just dies. Anyone have any ideas they could maybe help me with on this? -
So my 1983 280ZX 2+2 is having cold start issues. when i turn it on it idles up real high like 900-1000rpm and if i touch nothing after a few seconds the rpms drop and it stalls out. If i crank it and pump the gas it will stay on and not stall out but if i just floor the pedal instead of pumping it it will stall out also the is a quiet backfire that sounds like it comes from the engine area. The reason im calling this a cold star issue is because if i pump the gas long enough for the motor to warm up to running temp i can let go of the gas and it will idle fine at 800-900rpms it revs smooths and sounds good.
