My '85 runs beautifully, except for the rough(sometimes dies) idle after the engine gets warmed up. It happens when I press the clutch in and keep it in neutral coasting to a stop while braking! It sometimes dies and I've popped it into gear to fire it back up. I'm trying to find out what it is and how to fix it before it becomes a bigger problem.

Try looking for TVS/TVV or a vacuum solenoid that might not working properly. Also if it has an EGR check for carbon on it

Also won't hurt to check the fuel pressure-might lead to a fuel system problem. Weak Pump when heated
