Car sat for awile. It was almost out of gas. when started it has a fast idle, after it warms up it starts stalling. It runs rough the whole time. When I would put it in drive the engine bogs way down.
Hi Duane:
Think I'll "shoot from the hip" on this one.
Just for the fun of it, check the pcv valve and the related vacuum lines.
The auto choke when cold means running rich and the fast idle is OK. When it warms up it wants to run lean and it sounds like it might be too lean. PCV or vacuum leak may be the problem.
It also would be a reasonable idea to to a carb flush and to add a conditioner like SEA FOAM to help clean things up if the fulel gelled while it was parked.
Hope this helps.
