Re: '85 ur-q Cold Start Problem
# Second problem, under acceleration when the WOT switch operated the
# duty cycle would drop to 50%. This indicates (on a MAC02 anyway) that
# the idle switch is still closed. So I'd be happily accelerating away
# until I hit the WOT switch, which instead of richening the mixture
# actually leaned it out. Cool thing about this "feature" was the
# temperature sensitivty of it. Hooking up a voltmeter to the idle
# switch prior to this showed the idle switch to be functioning
# normally?

... too bad we can't call up the OXS duty cycle on our trip computers, at
least for those of us that have them (my 4k & 5ks do, the urq doesn't)
Thanks for posting your findings! My urq has an occasional cold start
problem (as if it really gets cold here) and I know that activating the
idle and WOT switches makes the car idle much better ... I think I have
a look see at the duty cycle!
