This is an 8V european model. I think it's about 11 V going to the WUR, I measured 25 O resistance on it. Switched the thermo-time switch and the aux.air valve and that gets almost 12V as well.
I once had a vacuum leak because I had accidentally pulled off a small hose, but I noticed that clearly because car would stall at each stop.
I looked inside the throttle body when changing the air filter and it seemed pretty clean. How would I go about cleaning it further? I'm considering sending it to a mechanic for a head/valve clean-up (because that's where the rattle seems to come from) and an oil change.
Timing seems to be really off at start-up because it runs on two or three cylinders. Just doesn't seem to be firing the right air-fuel mixture. Maybe adjust the idle-screw a little?
Thanks for your ideas.
Wilmar
