[DeTomaso] Any Ideas?

[dyogi]

My newly installed 302 Mangusta engine is doing something weird. It starts
and runs well, doesn't overheat, confirmed with the temp gauge and infrared
thermometer. The idle will suddenly start to drop until the engine dies. It
sometimes will start right back up and at other times will do so only after
some down time. While it starts to stumble and die, applying throttle and
raising the idle will keep it running. While throttling up at this point the
motor sounds good but will stumble if let back to idle. All ignition
components have been changed. Carburetor bowls are full of fuel. I've played
with timing and carburetor adjustment. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
