After reading many posts about the idle stabs, I had to check mine, it is
light grey/ivory white, p/n 251 906 083A, the wires weren't even connected
to the unit, but to themselves, I've owned the van for 5 months now, and
haven't even had any clue that it wasn't connected. I connected the wires
to the unit, and the idle stayed on a calm 1000 rpm, instead of earlier,
when it bounced between 800 and 900 rpm with 1 seconds interval. The
engine is the 2,1 112hp Euro model, engine code DJ, no kinds of exhaust
cleaning. The car is a 1988 Syncro. I guess I will have to try it
connected for some days, so I can tell whether the unit is ok when the
engine gets hot.

Bye,
