'87 4KQ newbie question
Hi all,
I am trying to correct the high idle speed at 1800rpm without AC on
and actually around 1200rpm with. Recently, a local non-Audi
mechanic replaced the AC compressor. Now the car idles high. I am
planning to change plug wires, spark plugs and clean ISV and
hopefully solve the problem. The new Bosch plugs have 3 prongs and I
have never seen such plugs. Do I need to gap them? If so, how?
Also, anything I should be careful about besides not to cross the
wires? Also, the dash instrument light went out, do I just pull
apart the dash cover and replace the bulb? WHere can I get a factory
manual. Is Haynes any good? Lastly, the rear muffler tail pipe
broke off the other day. I have called around and Stebro ($640 from
German Part) life-time warranty sounds very good. However, I
recently had the center section(ANSA) replaced under warranty.
Should I buy the ANSA rear section($159) for now? Any other brands I
should consider? TIA
