Hi All, Not really a car guy. I love them, but never had the opportunity to work on my own. Though, I've always wanted to. In order to further this dream, I bought a 1975 bronco. It was restored 6-7 years ago. Anyways, I had this bronco inspected in AR (I'm in TX), and everything checked out. It gets delivered today, and it starts right up. I drive it around and it's fine. It's idling a little low, but I suspect it needs a carburetor cleaning or something. So I pay the guy and he drives off into the sunset. I start driving and come to a stop light, and it dies. I get it started, but need to rev it to keep it alive. I get it parked, come back, and start it up again. I go to put it into reverse, and it dies. Throw it back into park, start it up again, and it again dies when shifting gears. When it's at speed, it sounds and runs fine. It does have a hand throttle, but it looks to have been disconnected as the knob comes straight out.
Any thoughts? Carburetor?
