Alrgiht, im new here, obviously.
I just purchased a 1979 X1/9 and it has some engine problems.
Just so you know, the battery is dead, so ive bee jumpstarting it until i can find out the problem.
But anyways. WHen i get the car started the idle goes really low until it stalls.
If i rev it up for 20 or 30 seconds then it actually stays started, but not smoothly
It drops down to a stalling point and then humps up to 2-3k RPM, n then back down. IT dos this repeatedly.
My first guess it the idle, but im scared that its a problem with the fuel system.
Any input?
Thanks!
