Runs with throttle but wont Idle

[crime_spree]

Hey guys,

I got an 86 Spree...Any idea what could be causing it to die when I stop giving throttle? It runs perfectly 30-35 mph until I stop, then it dies and will start again upon a few kicks.

I've read a few threads involving air, carb, etc. figured I'd ask and see if it can be pin pointed..

Thanks for the help

Idle circuit in carb is at least partially plugged up.

just do a good clean job on the carb and see if that helps

Check the float level carefully when you are in the carb.
