--WebTV-Mail-1240654046-10079 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit John Shouldn`t a car that idles smoothly at 850 rpm`s when warmed up run rough at the same speed when cold? Before I fixed a leaking intake gasket that was causing a poor idle and rough warm up,it would start right up and idle at 1200 rpm`s for a minute ar two and when the o2 sensor kicked in it would run rough, but the idle would slowly drop as the engine warmed up. Is there a way to make it run smoothly at that low idle when cold? Does your engine run at the same idle speed when you first start it up as when it is fully warmed up? (I`m talking about a cold morning of about 20 or 30 degrees farenheit) Thanks for your tim Regards, Jerry C. --WebTV-Mail-1240654046-10079 Content-Description: signature Content-Disposition: Inline Content-Type: Text/HTML; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit <html><body bgcolor="midnightblue"><img src="http://members.tripod.com/~webtv16/formone.gif"align="center"></body></html> --WebTV-Mail-1240654046-10079--
