[QUOTE="THE LIRA, post: 4883973, member: 35108"] Hello all my name is Tony and I have a 97 Cobra that will not hold an idle in its own.... Here is the story: we installed a new built motor and there is a little oil leak that I cannot find or identify. I did not put it on a lift because I have no access to one untill Friday but it is between the motor and tranny. The motor now has about 50 break in miles on it. Idle problem #1 The car will turn on and then shut off right away. It will do this consistently it will not stay on one time and turn off the next. The idle seems rough and it goes down to about 300-400RPM and then off. Idle problem #2 The other problem is when I push in the clutch and I am driving the car turns off not right away but it idles down to off. Like at a stoplight I will engage the clutch from second to put the brakes on and the car will shut off. Here are some facts: it did have a little old gas in the tank that we could not get all the way out of the tank. We did put that Lucas gas treatment and 93 octane in it though. The car did sit for 15 months. What could be the problem? PLEASE HELP she has been gone for 15 months and I need her running right she is my daily. [/QUOTE]
