You've probably got a vacuum leak under your throttle body. I have an 88 c1500 with the 4.3 and it idled at over 1000 rpm all the time. Found out that it was a bad gasket between the t.b. and the intake manifold. It took about 20 minutes to replace and it idled beautifully afterward. Grab a can of carb cleaner too, it prolly wouldn't hurt.

It could also be the IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE, easy to change, cost about 45 bucks at your local auto parts store.

What is wrong when your virago starts good idles good runs good but dies at idle when warms up good?

If your Virago starts, idles, and runs well but dies at idle when warmed up, it may indicate a fuel delivery issue, such as a clogged fuel filter or a problem with the carburetor, like dirty jets. Additionally, it could be a sign of electrical issues, such as a failing ignition coil or a loose connection, which can affect performance as the engine heats up. Lastly, check for vacuum leaks or issues with the idle adjustment, as these can also cause stalling when the engine warms up.
