86 Accord - Carburated
When I turn the ignition and gas my car, I can get it to stay running. If I let my foot off the gas enough for the rpm's to drop below 3,000 the car will shut down. Sometimes it sputters for a bit before shutting down. I have recently adjusted my timing belt. I set the cam pulley to where it says up was pointing up and the two lines across it were level with the head. I also set the marks through the hole at the transmission, lining up the pointer with the line that has a 'T' next to it. I've tried to move the position of the distributor but nothing seems to keep it running at normal idle speed. Please help!
