[alfa] Really low idle on Spider
Hi there. It has been probably over a year since I posted to the digest and I have not even been lurking too much. I now have a company car and don't get to drive my 1990 Spider too much. I try to get it out on the weekends, but sometimes it sits for 2-3 weeks. My problem now is that since it doesn't get driven regulary, the idle has dropped to about 400-500 rpm. Usually after start up it wont even idle at all. I have to keep giving it gas to keep it going. After driving for 15 minutes or so, it will idle but just barely. I haven't fiddled with anything to cause this. It has the Motronic ignition/injection. Any ideas what caused the idle to drop? Is the idle speed manually adjustable?
Thanks,
rob
