Start it up and closely observe the choke plate opening at 3 mins should be fully open if not adjust it to include the fast idle cam-

Is it a mechanical or electric fuel pump?

The truck will start and idle then when you tap gas pedal to bring idle to normal truck will stall out. It happens every time you take foot off of gas pedal it stalls. I changed the plugs, rotor, fuel filter, wires and air filter. It still does the same thing. I even put 1 can of dry gas in to it incase of water. I have not gone far with the dry gas in it yet. Any idea's as to where to go next.

Welcome to the forum, thanks for the donation. I, m not sure if you have a carb or fuel injected? With idle issues, I clean the carb or throttle body, if fuel injected check the idle air system, any codes?

Why would my truck die when I let out the clutch? Othewr than that it runs fine, tho it smokes a lot at start up. Also, the truck sat for five years being started only every six months.

Do you have a carburetor or fuel injection engine? This is going to make a difference in this case because I have a feeling it is fuel related.

If it is hard to start try using a bit of starter fluid in the intake and see if it starts easier and if you can keep it running with extra bursts of fluid. If so that is an indication of a fuel issue.

Let me know which engine and we can go from there. Thanks

There should be an idle solinoid on the carby, it is round and about 1"or so long with one wire going to it, this should click when the power is on, check this.

Engine Mechanical problem
1989 Mazda b2200 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Hello,
I seem to have the same problem as need help bad. My truck runs well, but when you let off the gas it stalls. The carb has been rebuilt and the vac leaks as far as I know have been taken care of. I checked the idle solinoid as You told him and mine does not click when the power is on. When I jump the solinoid from the battry it clicks. When I hold the jumper in place it idles much faster. With the power on my meter reads 0.08 volts at the solinoid. Please help
Paul

Paul:

It sounds like the wiring to the solenoid is broken internally. Follow the wire from end to end and check for continuity. I feel you will need to replace the wire.
