The wonders of the WOT switch



Patient:  89 200tqw

Sickness:  Stalling on decel., low rough idle(~400)

Treatment:  After repeated cleaning of the ISV and diligent search for vac.
leak decided to replace the WOT switch per Scott Mo. page.  Presto!  stable
idle (~8-900) no stalling on decel.  BTW, it pays to follow the
instructions in the Bentley.  Hooked everything back together after install
and finding continuity only to find that car would run up to 1200rpm on
startup and then promptlly die.  Appears that when I snugged up the bolts
for the switch it rotated out of adjustment.  Quick fix and back on the
road.  

Hats off to Scott and his great diag. page.
