You need to buy a book on Bosch fuel injector system. I own an 85
900S. It has over 250000 miles and still runs perfect. I do all tune
ups myself. It is very important that there be no vacuum leaks
anywhere in the system. For instance if I fail to replace the oil
filler cap correctly it will allow excess air into the system and make
the engine run rough. Go over all the hoses carefully and make certain
that they all seal, especially the large hose from the cam box to the
intake plenum. You must plug any holes in intake air system if they
are not connected to some other device.
The aux air is normally open and allow excess air into the intake to
make the engine idle fast until it warms up. The temp sensor
electrical resistance decreases with increasing coolant temperature and
makes the aux air close down, thereby slowing the idle.
You need to get the warm up valve working also.
