Subject:Help! irratic adling while wet

I would greatly appreciate immediate help concerning a particular idling problem. I need to get this fixed before next weekend as I am taking some kids on the Cuberee campout (Scouts).

Under damp conditions, my idle will fluctuate from 1000 to 3000 rpms. It may also just not begin the idle properly. Under dry conditions, everything seems to work fine.

Listmembers may remember a post from me a couple of weeks ago concerning an idling problem. At that time, the problem seemed to be rectified by making sure the connection on the Idle Stabilizer Control Unit was secure.

Do you think that the Control Unit is on its last leg? Is there a way I could check to see if it has shorted-out? Has anyone had similar problems.

Thanks in advance,
