John: thank you for e-mailing the table. i assume the values would also apply to a 2-wheel drive, 2.1L '86 vanagon ? in terms of procedure: 1. are you just using a VOM across the unit ground (if so, what pin ?), or vehicle chassis ground ? 2. Pins 4 and 11 you seem to be measuring current flow, is this correct ? 3. any precautions we should be alert to ? Thank You Again for sharing you experience. walter --- John <johnpatt@warwick.net> wrote: > walter bahm wrote: > > > > john: > > > > since the listserver is now automatically > stripping > > off attachments i wanted to ask you if you could > > forward me directly the attachment (ECU pin > values) > > you are referring to in you post. > > > > thanks, > > walter > > --- John <johnpatt@WARWICK.NET> wrote: > > > Hi Chris, > > > > > > From your discription it sounds like the idle > > > stabilization system is > > > reacting to a varying input or the control > module is > > > just faulty.
