Dennis. Not sure if you were totally serious or being somewhat "tongue in cheek". LOL. Maybe while "in there", replace the 2.1 throttle switch with some 1.9 throttle switches? And yes, I'm joking around about that. LOL. For me, disabling the idle control system was a bit of an experiment as well as something that helped trouble shoot things. In hindsight, I still wonder if the slightly lumpy idle was due to mechanical issues in the engine. Anyhow...... Neil.
