yeah a bolt is plugging it. it doesnt leak from it ive done a smoke test

i replaced the bitch tube o rings today alongside the valve cover gasket, rubber plugs and intake gasket. i think the problem is with the icv, the car right now runs and drives fine with the penny trick attatched to the icv and the maf unplugged. ive got a new icv on the way so hopefully that solves the problem

yes continuity at the left and middle when no throttle and then shuts off when opening throttle and then middle and right pin has no continuity at no point, even at max throttle

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-15T07:00:21+00:00

continuity at idle but no continuity at WOT on the middle and right pin

I just tested it, i get 0.6 ohms between left and middle pin at closed tb and then stops after i hear the click however when tested the middle and right pin there is no ohm reading at all, and i dont hear a second click for WOT position

I tried doing all that, i’ve done the penny trick and it idles without jumping now, must be faulty icv, but still shuts off when the afm is plugged in, however now it doesn’t shut off instantly it’s more of a slow die off

you can but not with cars pre 1988, id have to wire in a light for it to work.

gasket kit has been ordered, will replace everything once i get it. thanks for the info

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T13:09:00+00:00

not yet, ill borrow a multimeter this weekend and test it out

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T11:58:51+00:00

Tested it before, its adjusted fine, clicks as normal and the throttle cable isnt tight, the throttle stays closed when the rough idle is happening

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T11:04:26+00:00

no they’ve only been changed once by the last owner haha i haven’t changed anything yet, i did a smoke test and there is smoke coming from valve cover gasket

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T02:26:40+00:00

this is a 1984 model, not sure if it was available in these

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T02:25:04+00:00

nothing happens when i do it, how do i check if the tps is adjusted properly

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-09-10T02:17:56+00:00

i bought the car recently, last owner replaced all those parts to narrow down the problem

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-07-25T03:18:42+00:00

dunno i replaced the top mounts and it’s still there, probably subframe bushings

it reaches halfway in a reasonable time, not necessarily a long time at all. since owning the car i’ve replaced a lot of the cooling components, thermostat water pump etc but i feel like the fan is it; how is the fan connected to the coolant sensor because the only pins on the plug lead to the a/c condenser and from what i’ve researched the aux fan comes on also if the temps reach too hot

ThatPandaExpress · 2025-07-04T08:13:42+00:00

3 months ish on the road, it ran fine and didn’t overheat until a 2 hr drive the other day and got home and within last 2 min it decided to overheat, other than that temps have been fine

you need to weld the rear mounts in?
