I was selling these units as rebuilt for about $100 a couple of years ago. The problem was that about half of the units were coming back as non-rebuildable. As you can imagine this killed off my core base pretty quick. I gave it up. If you want to send me yours I could see if it is rebuildable. Ken Wilford www.vangain.com John 3:16 Tom L.

I had bought an idle stabilizer control unit on Ebay, so I put it on. Now I notice a difference. It does seem to work okay, but the idle seems to be right under 1000, and pulsing up and down a couple of hundred RPM, maybe twice per second. > >I am wondering if this might be a difference in how the controllers work from different years, or if my "new" one has a different kind of problem. > >Part 2: >Does anybody repair and test these things?
