***Go to the end for the UPDATE***
Hi all you teeners My car's idle sticks at 2k if I turn it off and start it immediately it goes back to 950. Looking for a vendor to fix this - I of course rebuilt it when the engine was out. I am sure all was done correctly (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I believe that the wrong springs may have been in the rebuild kit. Is there a vendor that rebuilds and calibrates these? Thank you Teeners! CTC911CTC |

Thank you Teeners! CTC911CTC Which distributor do you have? Marelli or Bosch? I sent our Marelli S112BX distributor to Ed Fall Vintage Werks LLC . He tested and sent me a curve mapping. He can also make adjustments to the advance progression as needed. |
