i have an 88 wrangler yj, 4.2 L, 6 cyl. when driving down a hill to a
stop sign, when the clutch is in the rpms drop real low and the car
eventually turns off. i dont know if the downhill thing is important
but that seems to be the only time it happens. any help is
appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi I would say it check your plugs. But if it is only happing when you
go down hill I am not sure that is it or not. Does the check engine
light come on when this happens? That may be a clue to why this is
happing.

If it is caused by driving downhill, then I would first look into the
float level being incorrect. If the level is too high, driving downhill
could be causing gas to enter the engine through the float bowl vent.
