would this not be true in forward as well,now its doing on flat ground in Rev only. Checked tranny 1 pint low,did compete tune-up 3mos ago,is there any wires around tranny that can be interfeard with when shifted into Rev. I'm disabled & its hard for me to crawl around under it!

In defense of mech 1,you cain't diagnose something thats not there!

I have a 90',4.0l,auto,Renix mpi,I had to turn around,pulled into a 15 degree down slope drive & when I put it into rev,it pick-up the slake & then started sputtering,like oveloading,& I just barely got out,& then at home again in my drive,Ha! the fuel filter that's been under my seat for...

It goes by many names I guess, I guess I would call it a manifold air temp sender or sensor,not the IAC,I check it & cleaned it.

I cannot bring this file up,says "file is damaged" maybe another way in?

I've got it to,90,4L,cold starts good idles fine unill warm & then it creeps up to 15/2000rpm,fixed vac leaks,TBS & IAC are clean & per specs,replaced ECU{to gauge} I was wondering about the intake air temp sensor, does that have a big impact on the high idle?

Okay,thats the way it was abc-ped,so the only thing I haven't checked is the IAT sensor,does that have a big part in the idle? & is the resitience check{ohms} that accurate?

My clip is damaged,so I'll go as is, the only thing I haven't checked is the IAT,would this effect the idle that much?

I pulled the IAC,looked like a good seal contact 360 on the pintle,cleaned soot,nothing serious,light oil,checked TPS volts in spec,& found that the connector from the ECU had the letters ABC up & the conn.from the TPS had the letters PED up, so I reversed the TPS to mate ABC TO ABC but it did...

I've been working on a high idle problem,going from 600rpm cold start,when starts warming up creeps to 1200/1500rpm, I found the same thing with my tps conn. abc from ecu & ped from tps,so I turned the one from the tps over to match but it did not to accept norm'l,sould I force it together?to match?

I found a maj vacuum leak,fixed it, & it seemed alright for awhile and it started going back to norm to high idle & back,so sprayed the TB & cleaned the black sooty stuff,making sure to spray the IAC port. Started it this AM for moca run,idle fine for 5-6mins & then went to 2000rpm & stayed...

A friend ask if I had rebooted the ECU,do you have too after replacing sensors & etc,if so,how do you on a Renix?

This sounds like the best advise I've heard yet! it will be a few days before I get to it,holidays & all,but will report back.

I just started having the same problem,idles @ 1700rpm,sometimes I will let it idle for about 10mins & it drops down slowly & might go back up when you drive it, some times so high you have to shift into neut'l @ stops. So do adjust the screw or bend the linkage or drink a beer?? I checked the...

Re: Acetone will increase MPG?!?! I dought that you can buy acetone for 3.00 a gal.? I use it,primarily for cleaning my Injectors,but it helps every thing else as well. I use 4ozs of acetone to a fill-up{20g} about every third tank. compare this to using say LUCAS Injector cleaner for 9-$10.00...
