911 SC Cold Running Problem

Hi,

I'm new here and I just wanted to get some views from the forum members about a problem I am having with my Porsche. I have a 1971 911T model with a turbo body conversion and a 3.0 Euro Spec SC motor fitted (CIS). I have a problem with cold running in that I can start the car, it starts easily and on first crank, and then runs at approx 950 rpm for a few minutes. I take off straight away and at the first set of lights the RPM dies down to the point where it stalls. It then starts again (easily), but will stall at the next intersection (all within a few minutes) if I don't catch it with the accelerator. After about 10 minutes, the idling is then fine and it sits nicely at 950 rpm. I am thinking that the mixture is not rich for long enough during warm up hence it is stalling before the engine temperature is up to normal levels. As this if my first 911 would appreciate any help on where I can start troubleshooting

thanks and love the forum

Matt
