Welcome to the forum. With your car approaching 40 yrs of age you are going to need to invest in some tools and be willing to learn. There are a lot of things that can go wrong with our cars and you will need to supply more information to help people help you. For instance, how many miles are on the car? Does it want to stall when the engine is cold (just started) or warmed up to operating temp or both? How long have you had it and has any work been done by others while in your possession (e.g. mechanically inclined friend changed the spark plugs, etc.) Did you buy it from a prior owner that left it sitting in a field for 20 yrs? etc. At the bottom of every forum page there is a link to Ogre's Cave. He has a lot of articles there that can start to educate you on how the car is put together, common problems, etc. YouTube also has a good many videos showing how to repair this or that. |

Thank you, the car will try to stall when in park or not driving even after its been warmed up and driven. You were really close with that guess, actually he drove it into a barn and left it for 20 years. The car has 87k miles. We recently put in a new part, there is a little grommet on the valve cover that we had to replace. There was a little gasket on where it went in there and we replaced it with the closest thing we could find as they do not reproduce it. Will post pics soon. Thank you
