Why does my Suzuki Khyber’s engine misfire o r stall at idle?

My Suzuki Khyber often misfires o r stalls when idling, and it gets worse when the engine is warm. I’ve cleaned the carburetor, but the issue persists. Could this be caused by a vacuum leak, faulty ignition system, o r something else in the fuel system that needs attention?

Engine misfires o r stalling at idle in the Suzuki Khyber are commonly caused by issues such as vacuum leaks, faulty ignition components, o r a clogged carburetor. A vacuum leak can lead to an improper air-fuel mixture, causing the engine to run roughly o r stall. Faulty ignition components, such as spark plugs, wires, o r the ignition coil, can also cause misfires, especially when the engine is idling. If the carburetor is clogged o r dirty, it can prevent the engine from receiving the correct fuel mixture, leading to stalling o r misfiring. To fix this issue, start by checking for vacuum leaks in the intake manifold o r hoses. Clean the carburetor, and replace any worn spark plugs o r ignition coils. A thorough engine tune-up, including checking the fuel system, can often resolve misfiring and stalling problems.
