Car will not idle.
Hello all, i fixed my high idle problem by replacing the warm up regulator. It seems that the broken regulator allowed the engine to idle at 1000 rpms without ever dropping, covering up a different problem! The new warm up regulator works great however when the car begins to idle down from warm up, it simply boggs down and stalls. The car runs great at all speeds except idle. Where should i start? fuel pump? Relay? fuel filter? spark plugs and wires? I need some direction!
Oh yeah, when the car stalls, it takes alot of cranking to get it going again. as if its fuel starved.
Thanks
Rory
