Re: alpha 1 gen2 stalls
Had full service and tune not long ago
The words "not long ago" doesn't mean a whole bunch. If it has been 1 year or 200 hours since it's had plugs, cap & rotor.... it's time to change them. If it's been 3 years since plug wires.... time for those to.
I would advise against....
playing with the idle screw
unless you know what your touching and why you are touching it.
It is SUPPOSED to idle between 650-700.... If it's not then there is an issue.(obviously) Playing with screws isn't going to fix anything.
I'd check the compression first... if it's up to spec then check the base timing and make sure it's nailed down to the degree. Next go through the tune up items and make sure everything is kept up according to spec. If all the tune up items are in order get some foaming 6 in 1 spray oil and start spraying around the intake manifold where it meets the head, the carb base/gaskets, and the throttle shaft and look to see if it gets sucked in (looking for an air leak).
If that all passes then more than likely you have a dirty carb, and it needs to be cleaned/rebuilt.
