JiP Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Could be your master cylinder. It's happened to before. Try pulling your choke out when slowing down. It won't fix it but it will stop it from stalling until you get it fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollaboy2608 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 check needle and seat, easy to do, costs a few bucks, also check for vacuum leaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clapped out Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 95% sure its your timing! cheers phatke30! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt-e30 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 95% sure its your timing! cheers phatke30! yeah i was going to say so too.. also check the point on the dizzy are clean and the button is in good order.. used to have a pulsar that did the same thing would drive reasonably well (well for a nissan anyway :sob: ) then when backing off the go pedal and down gearing it would usually stall, looked at the timing seemed to be fine .. points well all good but the button had built up S**t on it so cleaned it up and she went fine....

anastasios Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 yep check your carby, like rebuild it, i just put different points, redid all the vacuum hoses and timing and it still stalls, so ill probably be rebuilding it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coln72 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Cheap and nasty, swap number 2 & 3 plug leads, hold foot flat and turn the key. The back firing usually cleans any shit out of the carby. Just remember to remove your aircleaner as it might catch on fire........... If this doesn't fix it do the above.

Chet Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 check your vacuum hose, and other various hoses in your engine bay, make sure they all connected.. normally one comes undone and it happens to me. alternativly, get it performance tuned, if its something to do with the carby..
