Stalling at stoplights / Complete loss of power. 2 seperate issues 700 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be devlncrnt on  Fri Jul 30 21:13 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I had both of these problems at the same time on my '91 780. Turned out to be a leav in the vacuum hose. I had that replaced and it runs very nicely. Until you can get it worked on you can prevent it from stalling at the lights by keeping the engine taching at around 1500, it will take a little more pressure on the brakes and shouldn't be done for any great tiem or distance but it will keep you going until you can get it to a shop or get the hose.
