Potentiometer on Idle Control Unit
A 380sl I've been restoring had a surging idle. So I had Programma rebuild the idle control unit, which cured the surging.
However, the car is now idling in gear at around 1000-1100 RPM's, rather than in the normal 600-700 range, and tweaking the potentiometer on the unit doesn't seem to do very much. So I was wondering if anyone here could tell me what that potentiometer is supposed to do, if not somehow increase and decrease the idle. Thanks very much in advance. |

Could be a vacuum leak somewhere.
Or your ERG valve might be gunked up. |

Spraying the engine with brake fluid didn't affect the idle at all, and AFAIK the car doesn't have an EGR.
