My idle is very low. maybe 500 RPM's. I would like to raise the RPM so less warm up is required to start driving without restarting everytime I come to a stop sign. Thank you, Jeff

Yes, lots of AAR variants. Just check that Aussie AAR repair guy’s site! All are a bit different. Was using an 85-86 BMW M6 unit but not acting right so got the original working and reinstalled. Huge (good) difference.
Hard to find. Rarely in working or dependable condition. Hopefully someone in US will parallel the Aussie guy and service. Not a bad sideline….. |

I wonder if anyone has tried fitting one of these to our little 1.8Ls I know the locating tab would have to be removed but it looks like it would fit/maybe work?
