car is a '86 5kT. first of all, thanks for those who helped with the
radiator questions..i couldnt find a metal end one..so i just went with OEM..
hopefully it will last another 10 yrs. car runs alot cooler, and fan doesnt come on
all the time. i must have had some blockage in the old one.
anyway im having a prob with rough idle when i first start it in the morning.
i removed and cleaned the ISV , didnt help..i replaced the ISV with one from
one of the 86-91 VW Vanagons i had laying around (yea the type44 uses the
exact same ISV as a 86-91 Vanagon!) and that didnt help either..
problem is this:
start car, and rpm's drop real low, idles like crap..continues to do so until
i shut it off, then i restart, and it idles fine. its just that initial
time i start it, it idles crappy. its like shutting it off and restarting it is
resetting something.. any ideas? injectors leaking down? cold start valve?
i dont have a problem at all during the rest of the day, car starts fine, its
just when it sits for more than 12 or so hours.. anyone know?
any help is appreciated..
