    idle problems yo..

    ok, so one morning i go to my car to go to work, and i start up and everything seems fine.. soo i put it in reverse.. and my car spits and sputters and crappin.. so i put it into first and still the same.. so later that day i come home and decide to play with it some more.. car starts fine.. runs fine.. i go around the block fine.. no problems.. then the next day on my way home from school.. i push im my clutch and my idle just goes down to zero.. car shuts off.. and now thats all it does when it warms up..

    i feel i have a vaccum leak but not sure.. could be carb problems..

    ok, the car is 1986 honda accord LX carb.
    one day I'll return.
