Re: idle problem UPDATE

The temp gauge is something I spoke about earlier, the colant temp sensor as well. But generally, when a cooloant temp sensor fails it's a richer condition you get and not a lean condition, but BOTH do occurr.

The temp gauge replacement and it reading higher now could indeed mean oyu were getting cooler readings than you thought, originally...

Yes, I do infact remember you telling me about those sensors. Thank you VERY much. I have to work tomorrow so we may may get a chance to see results. I drive a lot while I work.
