Engine Stall
Hi All,
I notice a strange problem and need help. I can start the car and it idles fine. When
I drive for a block and come to a stop the engine slows until it shuts off. I noticed that when
I turn on the head lights the doors only open half way and the engine idle drops with the engine like it's going to stall.
Is that a vacuum leek? How can I diagnose the problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

How is the battery, and do you have an electric fuel pump?
The other issue is maybe there is a prob with the vacuum drawing fuel into the carb and part of your lights issue.
Im not the best to respond here, but at least I bumped your post
