Alfa Romeo GTV Idle Instability Due to Clogged Idle Jets

Locate the idle jets within the carburetor body. Remove the jet assemblies and visually inspect the tiny pilot orifice for debris, varnish, or blockages. Confirm the cause if the engine fails to idle despite correct mixture settings, and the orifice is found to be physically obstructed. Ensure the jet orifice is clean by using carburetor cleaner and compressed air, verifying no obstructions remain in the passage.
