My 320/6 of late has some wired idling behaviour. On a warm engine, the idling runs between 900 to 1100/1200 rpm.
Anyone has some reasonable suggestions for this behaviour and solutions? |

vacuum leaks are usually the first thing to check. Idle problems in a K-Jet car usually stem from these kinds of leaks. Don't forget to check the oil filler cap and anything associated with Crank Case Ventilation. |

my car had the same issue once after an oil change. I managed to get the car to work okay. But when i left and i was on my way home its stalled at a major intersection I poped the hood and ficked on the hazard lights (thank god i had just brought a hazard light switch the day before) I had traffic backed up for ages and could not get a decent enough break to get her off the road. 2 hours later i managed to get it up on the side of the road (after peak hour was over) turned out i left the dipstick loose and it was loosing compression... |

Uummm! 320/6 .... runs on Solex 4A1 Carb....
However, same principles may apply. Check vacuum hoses to carby and try tightening the carb bolts a little. |
