I'd leave it unplugged and adjust the idle etc normally and with the engine warm. There's some chance that the AAR will free itself up on its own once you've put it thru a few warmup cycles. Maybe drip a couple of drops of oil in there to help it. If it does free itself, it will probably be obvious if your weather is cool. Otherwise, you'll probably never notice the the change. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
