My 2.0 had the FI unceremoneously removed by a previous owner and a cheap no-name 2 barrel mounted in its place. It has been running OK but yesterday when I first cranked it, it did not want to idle. I was going to take it to run a few errands so I figured I had not been driving it enough lately so I took it anyway. Once it warmed up, it wanted to "idle" at about 4 grand. I could stab at the loud pedal and it made no difference, still 4 grand. I got it home and let it sit a while and cranked it again, same thing, 4 grand. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
Today, I sprayed the carb full of carb cleaner and let it sit a few minutes, not it wants to idle at 2 grand. Any ideas, suggestions, names of good hit men, etc? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fighting19.gif) Thanks, Mike |

Have to ask..... have you looked at the t'rottle return spring? (and general state of the cable)
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) If it's a leak, it usually repeats the same symptom, then get's worse. M |
