Working on a 1974 2.0 d-jet
-symptom 1- when i start it... idle is very low no where near the 1600 rpm as Brad mentions -symptom 2- low idle...like 550 rpm -symptom 3- when coming to a stop it almost dies -symptom 4- stomp on gas when sitting and driving it goes blah... then takes off. -symptom 5- as it warms up loses a little power things to note: -there are 20 clicks when pushing down accelerator so tps is correct -timing and dwell were checked today and they were within spec. -lifters just adjusted |

... idle is very low no where near the 1600 rpm as Brad mentions A - Brad who ? B - 1600 rpm is _not_ normal idle !! Any street Porsche should idle at not more than 1000 rpm. 850 +- a few would be a nice goal, IMO, and 600 is not too low unless there's a lot of miles and low oil pressure and/or cooling is a big factor. Where exactly did you see the reference that a T-IV should idle at 1600 ? |
