I have a 89 cadillac brougham and as soon as I start it, it stalls out I used carburetor cleaner and a adjusted the carburetor screw. What can I do to fix this?

Hi:
The problem may not be the carb. Are you seeing any smoke coming from the exhaust? Also, check for vacuum leaks. For some reason I'm starting to see problems with the brake booster or boster vacuum hose. Check it out.
