1986 c900S NA 16V auto tranny
Car starts and runs almost perfect. Drives great, shifts great, etc.
Basically when it's running and I step on the gas, the rpms drop and it wants to stall until I take my foot off the pedal. Does it hot or cold.
I can sort of 'feather' the pedal,lightly pushing on it until she goes..and it takes a second but it'll get going and then it runs like a champ. Sucks at stop signs, red ligts and pulling into traffic!
Brand new NGK/Bougicords/dizzy cap/rotor/vac lines/AIC cleaned etc. I've gone over everything I can think of, and without any other symptoms it's hard to troubleshoot. No smoke or anything like that, all fluids look good, etc. Nothing else seems out of place. Does it at idle in P also.
I can get past the initial 'wanting to stall' part, and then it'll rev smooth and not miss a beat. No heavy gas smell.
The only thing not changed is the fuel filter. I swapped the coil with my other Saab and no difference. Any help appreciated!
