Subject:Cold Idle Surge
From:Michael J. Gilpatrick

Greetings!

For the last two weeks I've been having problems with my idle surging to
over 4,000 rpms.  Starting up cold in the morning it is fine.  After a few
minutes it runs high as if the linkage is stuck.  If I turn it off and wait
a minute I can start it up and it is fine the rest of the day.

I have an 86 GL syncro with 140,000 miles on it.

Words of wisdom are appreciated!
