If you have eliminated the possibility of there being a vacuum leak, you may want to check the oil sending unit (names may vary among cars). The symptoms may include stalling when stopping at a red lights and oil (and maybe choke) lights on the dashboard lighting up when slowing down. This specific problem and solution has been reported as being seen on a 1982 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera LS.

When adjusting the idle on you ford bronco, you must be sure that you do not turn the screw several times, it only takes a few small turns, also be sure to check that your bronco is properly warmed up

To check for a vacuum leak around the carburetor remove the breather assembly and spray carburetor cleaner around the base of the carburetor. When the engine idle rises something in that area will be a source of a vacuum leak. Check the hoses in that area for cracks, dry rot, or a loose connection. If no hose is found to be the problem then check for a broken gasket between the manifold and carburetor. Hint: finding and correcting one leak may not totally stop your ideling problems, there may be more than one vacuum leak, you may have problems with the carb that might require rebuilding it with a carb rebuild kit from an auto parts supplier or your auto's manufacturer.

The greatest check of carb adjustments is smell. If you smell a heavy odor of exhaust after adustments you may need a more thourough check or tune up. The key to a properly tuned engine is to let it burn all the fuel you give it.
