Hello, I am new to this forum, first post. I have an 82 4 speed Chevette and for the past couple days it has been having this problem where it will start but then if it is let at idle it dies almost immediately. It will however continue to run if you give it gas. The car has had problems starting when cold since I bought it at the beginning of this year but I just assumed it was because its a carbureted engine. Also for as long as I've had it, the check engine light has been on(not sure of the diagnostic process on these cars as it is OBD-I) and the previous owner said it idles high, which I believe to be true. Any help in any form would be greatly appreciated.
