Engine Stalls
Hello,
I recently found and bought my dream car, a '65 Mustang Coupe. I tried taking her out for a drive and discovered that the car stalls when you hit the brake. I stoped for a stop sign and when I went to press on the gas, the engine stalled. I was able to make it out of the intersection though. I went over some receipts the previous owners had. He had the same problem. He had the carb rebuilt but it still stalls out. Any suggestions as to the cause? |

sounds like a possible vacuum leak to me, check hoses, carb gasket, intake
