Problems when car engine is cold
Posted by Damon Rogers (more from Damon Rogers) on Wed, 20 Oct 1999 00:53:44
Hi,
My 88 Saab 900 T is having problems when the engine is cold. When ever the
engine is below the green area on the temp gauge the car will surge from
about 100 rpm to 2500 rpm, and keeps stalling. Once the car warms up it
runs fine (occasionally it will surge 50 rpm up or down but not often). So
every time I leave the car for 2.5 hours I find my self holding the
accelator down keeping the rpms at 2500 till it is warmed up which is very
annoying. Now this is what I have done, I replaced the AMM with one from a
car I know is fine, that did not work. And today I tried cleaning my AIC
and when I found that didn't work I got a new AIC and tried that. That also
did not work. Now what should I try? One thing I noticed is that the
Crankcase vent. hose is melted and there is a hole in it, would this cause
the problem? Also does anybody know where i can get a GOOD diagram for the
vacuum hose routing?
Thanks in advance for the help
Damon
88 900T
