Probably have to replace it. Same thing happened to my 87GL. Had to replace it, now it purrs at 850 rpm. Don't ask about cold-idle w/AC however!-Interesting oscillations!! Another story. Replace it, there should be specs in the Bentley to confirm death of idle stabilizer (Throttle Position Switch). Mark B. Magee 87GL 82 Diesel Westy |
