Cold start tick-over problem

[bLac K aBriOleT89]

Yes, CIS all the way, and yes,I do go to Midtown often, I have several friends that leave there and couple of nice places a like to go too . If not to work on the cars it's always exciting meeting cabby owners in town, you already know there are not a lot of us here! lol

Solved. It was the warm up regulator. Thank you for all your help and suggestions.

Glad to hear you figured it out. It's always nice to hear how a problem got resolved.

Me too, it was just such a tricky one to track down...

As always though, straight out of one problem into another. The clutch cable tube on the pedal cluster bracket snapped off today so I had to strip all of that junk out, re-weld it and put it back together.

It's hard having these cars as daily drivers sometimes...

Yeah. I think part of the problem is their previous owners tended to regard them as kind of disposable, so by the time we get them they usually have 10-15 years of deferred maintenance to catch up on.

Yeh, the only good thing is that each time I do some work on the car, no matter how annoying or how fiddly, it's always that much more pleasant and satisfying to drive afterwards.

Isn't that kinda like the after glow of Sex whatever Sex is? .....
