Why would it happen more often with a carburated vehicle?


Because of electronic idle speed control systems: a lot of carbs don't
have them while most fuel injection systems do. Without those systems
the idle can vary quite a bit depending on the temp of the engine
and/or air, humidity, altitude, pressure, etc.
