Recently I've been having a problem with my continental. It runs fine when it's cold, however once it gets to normal temp, as I'm slowing to stop, it idles low. Then it surges back to normal rpm then stall. If I put it into neutral it starts right back up. I've checked as many of vacuum lines that I can see.
Any ideas?
