Yes it improves idle at
operating temperature. However, cold start is impossible with the pot disconnected so I cant just disconnect it (would otherwise be a good way to solve the problem until I have a new one in my hand to replace it)... Nevertheless, is there a good way to ensure that this is the problem?
Also, is it very hard to remove/replace this one? Must the whole fuel distrubutor be taken apart/removed? I have not found the screws that hold it in place so far
Does anybody know the approx. price for this part?
