When I start my 1972 1.7L, the idle immediately goes to 4,000 rpm. The only thing I've done recently is replace all the fuel lines down under where the fuel pump is.
All vacuum hoses appear to be connected. I did not remove the air cleaner to check anything under there, but I did tug on them and nothing came loose. It happened like this: stopped the car to open the garage. As soon as I restarted it, it went to 4,000 rpm. I thought I heard a noise in the car (like something came loose or broke or something, but I'm not sure). A friend of mine told me it might be something down around the clutch and gas pedal assembly. I could not find any crossed wires or anything. I do not have a pedal board, by the way. Not sure if that matters, but I mention it in case it does. Any ideas what could be causing this? |
