So after buying my '74 beetle at the beginning of the year, he's almost ready to be registered.
I drove him back from the mechanics after getting his RW, and stalled him at the petrol station (had just got my license the day before, in my defence!). After that he would conk out whenever he was at idle. A very stressful drive home!
His 'idle wire' was loose previously when this was happening, but we fixed the connection about a week ago. Though the whole wire looks a little old. I think perhaps the stall bumped his wire loose again. We have altered his idle to a slightly higher rev-range a few months back as well.
What could be causing him not to idle? Should I just replace the idle wire?
