My lovely S150 is having all kinds of trouble with the idle and keeps stalling on me at red lights or approaching stops & turns. I've taken it back for adjustments twice already & I've only had it since June 08!! I had some trouble at the gas pump and it wouldn't run, I had to walk it home. Got it back from the dealer and now it stalls all the time. Is anyone else having similar problems or is my love betraying me?

Sorry to hear that, have the dealer take it back and fix and not return it until its fix right.

You shouldnt have to deal with that issue that much.

In Cali, we have a three strikes lemon law, this would make your third time.

Good luck

Good point, try this: ET/GT/LX: Hard Starting, Rough Idle, or Stalling

The dealer is not likely to do it for you.

I had to adjust my idle before, and that helped.

On the GT it is staring at you on top of the carborator.

<edit> and hey, there's my 1000th post! Woo Hoo!

When this happened to me 2008 Fly(same engine I think) it turned out to be a clogged Idle Jet in the carb.
It happened at about 500 miles.
I was told it was some lubricant put in at the factory. The gas (hah) was suposed to flush it thru.
