Subject: erratic idle on cold start- '87 900S
My 1987 900S will idle erratically when you first start it up; from
about 500rpm to 2500rpm, sometimes it will stall. Once it warms up or
you drive it a short distance (like 30 feet) it will idle normally. At
this point you can turn the car off and then turn it back on and it's
fine.
Also, when I first start driving the car it will shake for a little bit;
this is worse if I'm accelerating. The last car I had that did this
would shake all the time because the engine mounts were shot, but this
is where it gets weird- the vibration will go away and then the car runs
like it's new. So I just drive around the neighborhood a couple times
until it stops shaking. It's not the tires.
Thanks for any ideas.
