I've been diagnosing the infamous high idle problem, which my '86 Westy has. I still need to do a few more tests to convince myself, but after monkeying around (with advice from the list archives and Bentley) I believe the idle control unit is bad. A common failure it seems. Anyone know: a good source for these or a remanufacturer -- or does anyone have a unit they want to sell ? Thanks - Alan Cote '86 Westy |
