Hi Ronald and list members I am still having the same slow throttle response as before, but having driven the vehicle for several hours on the weekend, I have noted that the problem occurs ONLY after about 1 min idling. A stop at the traffic lights will do it. But if I put it in neutral (I have an auto) and keep the revs at about 1200, then back to idle and Drive, then take off, everything works fine. Does this indicate a temp sensor overheating at idle? Any ideas from the guru's Scott 90 vanagon GL Auto 68 Landrover LWB 74 Landrover Safari Wagon and other money burners At 22:47 4/05/97 -0400, you wrote: >Hi Scott..
