Re: [T3] No Idle


One of the many possible things to check is the larger hose that goes
between the pressure sensor and the intake air distributor.

The pressure sensor is the fist-size device located on the left side of
the engine bay, and the hose runs under the left intake manifolds to
connect underneath.  With the work you've recently done in there, there's
a chance that this hose has been pulled off at one end or the other by
mistake.  It's really hard to see the IAD end, since it's underneath, so
check carefully.

If it has come loose at either end, the pressure sensor will think that
you're flooring the gas pedal all the time, and the car will run terribly.

Good luck!
