Subject:stalling out, idle problems

Hi,

This morning on first start she ('80 Westy) idled fine, warmed up a bit, and
off we went on an hour and a half drive. After parking for 4 hours or so,
started up fine but wouldn't idle, just dropped down, coughed and died, but
starts right up again. Did this for a few stop lights (fun!), and then was
fine once warmed up. After another hour of driving, a half hour stop and
same problem when we came out.

Tried the idle screw, didn't do anything really, though it was hard to tell,
since it won't idle.

Any airheads had this problem?

Thanks..
