Subject:Surging idle on 87GL
From:Gary McEachern
Date:Mon, 3 Jan 2000 20:19:23 EST

Hello folks
The idle on my new '87 Wolfy (almost) continually surges between 1000-1200
RPM. The surging occurs about once every second or two. Sometimes it stops
after it has been running for some time.

I know this problem can be caused on the 83-84 model years by a bad or
misadjusted idle switch or a bad idle stabilizer but neither of these are
used on the 87 model.

Any suggestions?

Gary
