1986 900 Turbo (LH 2.2, US Market)
After recently rebuilding the engine in my car upon the first start it attempted to Idle to nearly 3k RPM. I quickly found that clamping off the AIC hose with a vice grip acted as a band-aid and brought the idle down to 850. I have driven the car around 600 miles since (with the vice grip), and the car drives amazing. If I pinch off the hose any harder the car immediately dies (which verifies the throttle plate is closed)
Here are things that I have checked/done:
NTC, AMM, o2, Vacuum leaks, Cleaned/Lubed AIC, Set basic Idle (throttle stop, tps, dashpot)
I am desperate and would love to hear some opinions! (also this is my first post as a long time lurker on saabnet!)
