Here's the scoop... `76 2.0 - start it up, idles right at 500 and tries to stall.
After warming up for 5 - 10 minutes, and driving for another 10 - 15 the idle will FINALLY creep up to 1100. This had me thinking aux air valve. We removed it, cleaned it, checked connections and functionality... it's fine. Still doesn't fix the problem. Also note the car feels like its running on three cylinders! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) I started pulling the plugs tonight (after letting the car cool for 2+ hours) and am unable to comfortably remove the two rear plugs. Feels like they are still WAY too hot... does this engine take THAT long to cool? If still not plugs... any other things I could start checking? Thanks in advance! |
