Stalls when it's in gear
I'm having a problem with my car, where it will stall if it's in gear and it is standing still (like sitting at a stop light). The motor will idle at about 600rpms when I put it in drive or reverse, and will start to stutter and stall if I don't tap the gas. It's fine while driving. These problems only occur when the car is cold.
I don't drive it all that much and it sits outside, if that could be causing it.
Any help is much appreciated.

Re: Stalls when it's in gear
Same here. Mine runs like it has a huge cam unless I let it run for 5 minutes in the morning before I get in it. I think it's just the fact that the over the years clearances have become greater and the heat helps close it up.
