I started experiencing high idles while in Florida recently.  My mechanic
had me disconnect the idle unit and it runs fine without it.  He said it's
purpose is when using air conditioning to provide extra giddyup.  I tried a
replacement with same symptoms.  I don't like leaving it like this so any
ideas what else might be wrong with mine.  I doubt that it has anything to
do with your timing.

Hello all,

 

Does anyone have any experience running their 2.1L vanagon with the idle

stab. control unit not installed. I'm wondering if this is causing my timing

problems??? Thanks in advance, Joe
