  Good day to all, The car idles fine, runs well but a bit too rich. When coming to stop she shuts off, restarts, drives until next stop then stalls out? Can someone please refer me to a mechanic in the West Palm Beach, Fl área or member that can help me out with a diagnosis and repair? Thank you.

  Adjust the idle speed screw on the linkage. If the throttle plate is closing completely when you release the gas pedal, it will shut the engine off. Turn the screw in (not the jets) until the engine idles smoothly when the pedal is fully released.
