re. 1982 Coupe:Hot Start Issues

[Ben Swann]

Huw,

A mixup in terms I suppose.  As long as I can recall, back to the days of
the Dasher and Rabbit, the terms Control Pressure Regulator and Warmup
regulator have been used somewhat interchangeably, as the warmup regulator
adjusts control pressure based on warmup/engine temp.  I think the term
Warmup Regulator comes from the thermo switch that provides additional
vaccum on warmup(or is it the other way around) to provide for reduced
control pressure during the first few minutes of engine running.   Also
doesn't it have vacuum ports for control pressure regulation based on
manifold preesure(vacuum) as well?

Anyway WUR is what I am referring to.

Ben
