Could just be the brushes, They're notorious for quitting just when things start going well... They aren't TOO hard to check or replace. |

Are you like that in real life as well? I took the trouble to ask my guy and he took the trouble to answer me back. So I'm posting what he told me anyway. He's not often wrong, so this information may be useful to you. Below are my guy's comments for this particular symptom on your '88 22R EFI engine: "1) A vacuum leak, usually around the intake at cylinder #4, spray some brake cleaner in the area, and see if it speeds up and smooths out. The heat from the EGR valve shrinks the intake gasket, causing it to split. "2) Lopy idle can be a hung-up airflow meter too, and I have seen those hang up if someone changes the air filter while the engine is still running. A little debris get in there, hangs it up, runs rich and lopy off-idle. Usually can be cleared out by snapping the throttle or reaching inside and moving the airflow meter door a few times by hand. "Is it rich-smelling? Then it's probably the airflow meter. If not, look at the intake gasket. The intake gasket is the most likely problem." -- Tegger |
