Stalling out

[cw84]

Gotta 84 cj7 drives beautiful but when it's time to turn, I clutch then she revs real high then stalls she starts right back up. It's like I have to keep my foot on the gas to keep her going . I put carb cleaner through it and still keeps stalling out. Anyone got any suggestions what could be wrong

does this happen at idle too or just when you turn?

Yeah it'll stall out at idle to as long as my foot is on the gas I'm good

 

[cw84]

Yes as long as my foot is on the gas I'm good

I would recommend checking the idle screw on it. sounds like it could be the engine speed dropping too low on idle.

I'd try cleaning the carb out. The venturi on my old 85 needed to be cleaned every year.

 

[cw84]

Sounds good I'll check both

I just went through the same thing with my 85 CJ7. Turns out there was a bend valve in the carb. Instead of jacking around with ripping the carb apart, I purchased a remanufactured carb. The original carb that was removed will be a tinkered with when the snow starts to fly.
Not sure if that helps, but that's my personal experience. I know its frustrating, but stick with it

Awesome I'll take a look have you had any problems since

No issues after the carb was swapped. I drive the CJ on a daily basis (except for days that rain is in the forcast).....
