I have a 71 pinto w/2.0. It runs fine down the road but when setting idling in drive or when comming to a stop it dies. I have rebuilt the carb, checked the timing, new plug etc. and it is still giving me problems. It almost acts like a vacuum leak but I have check and have not found any. Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Hello hoeser,
It most likely the carb.
I had the same problems...
Find a NEW carb or send your carb to ponycarbs.com
I wish I knew their secret!!!!

I would bet their is a vacuum leak in the de-acceleration valve.
