hi all

when im driving and put the clutch down as the revs drop low it stall's, when i was just comin down the motorway at about 70 put the clutch down and it stalled when it was at 1000 revs, so i tried it a few times and it did the same thing, when i was pulling up at the lights its doin the same thing unless i keep the revs on any ideas?

also when i sit idleing if the res go below 1000 the oil light comes on, ive changed the oil and all the levels are fine, is it just a dodgy light or is there something else that could be wrong with it

Teh KE-Jetronic system really doesn't like air leaks so if you have a dumpvalve I would firstly remove it and balnk the holes off. If this doesn't cure it search the breather system for leaks. If you still have the standard plastic pipe from the top left of the rocker cover to the metering head check this throughly as it can crack due to becoming brittle with age

cheers mate just had a look and it has been glued and taped but it has come apart underneath the tape, do they sell these at ford still?

Replace it with a proper piece of oil resistant hose or just use it as an excuse to get a Baily oil breather and fitting kit.
