1977 911s hesitates and stalls when hot

[nixtfy]

Hi Guys
I just picked up a new 77 911s. I road tripped the car home from L.A. to Colorado .

A few issues. Car hesitates when cold and hot 2-3k rpm

Car when it warms up stalls sometimes when the clutch is engaged at a stand still . I have to keep it revved to keep the motor running.

Any ideas.

Where to start?? But sounds like a fuel issue (lean).
You need to do a full check of the fuel system. Be prepared to spend a few weeks in there and hopefully not too many $s.
Search a few threads - there are plenty - on diagnosing CIS issues.

Take it to someone that knows what they're doing. CIS can be a pain to diagnose even when you know how the system works. You'll need a pressure gauge and knowledge on how to read the pressures.

Well I took the car down to my mechanics. Eisenbud’s best in Denver . He spent 30 minutes with the car.

Changed the air fuel mixture
Changed the timing

Discovered a spark plug wire that was not snapped completely over the spark plug cap. I think I will keep leaving it to the experts.

Please let us know what else gets done and what the mechanic said.

When they are running right, all the world's problems just fade away.
