Joe;
Always suspect the TEMPII sensor. They fail relatively often. I
am on my second or third on both our WBXs.
Just replace it. It is cheap and easy. If it does not fix the problem
then you have a spare. The next most likely problem is the idle position
sensor. Easy to test. Just have someone work the gas ,with engine off.
You should hear some distinct clicking made by the switch opening and
closing.
Another slight possibility, which we experienced on our 85, is
the advance mechanism in the distributor jamming. This was also the
result of a sudden, clutch related stall. Thorough cleaning and
lubricating of the works fixed the problem. Hey! How many people put a
few drops of oil on the felt button below the rotor of these mechanically
advanced units?
Good Luck and Drive Safely
