  • @jimsutherland6596
    @jimsutherland6596 Před 3 lety +3

    Have worked on these engines since new, here are several other things I always check when there are idle issues: 1- Make sure throttle linkage is adjusted correctly, and is allowing throttle butterfly to fully return to its stop. This requires checking from gas pedal to top of engine, and especially at the bellcranks on the side of the transmission and the top of the engine. 2- Make sure throttle butterfly stop screw is adjusted correctly. On this FI system it is not used to set idle, only to keep butterfly from wearing throttle bore when closing. 1/2 turn open is the proper adjustment. If one tries to correct a low idle using this screw, it will ruin the adjustment of the idle switch. 3- Make sure the idle switch is good and is adjusted properly. Surprised not to see this mentioned, as it can definitely cause idle to hunt if it’s not. It’s on the rear of the throttle housing and is adjusted by loosening and moving it. Easiest to adjust both stop and switch with the throttle housing off the engine. This is a bit of a tricky adjustment but info explaining the procedure is in the Porsche manual. 4- Check short rubber hose crimped onto left end of vacuum pipe which runs from the intake boot (btwn airflow meter and throttle housing) to the Y-shaped vacuum venturi for the power brakes. These deteriorate after 35 years and can leak. Great videos - wish I had your patience! Sorry I didn’t come across this video series before now. The older I get the more I learn!

    Fifty-five years ago I had one of the first Porsche 911s in the US, a 1966 model, chassis number 901180, the 180th 911 ever built. Six Solex carburetors (actually, two 3-barrel units sharing a common float bowl) and the only transistors in that entire car were in the Blaupunkt radio. I'd pull the engine and transmission out as a unit: Four mounting bolts, one fuel line, a throttle cable, a few wires, and a 10mm bolt to disconnect the shift linkage. It was a 10 minute job including the time spent putting the car up on jackstands. Those were sure simpler times.

  • @lockpickingjudge5039
    @lockpickingjudge5039 Před 3 lety

    Love your channel! I hope you see this comment. Your diagnosis of the idle being too high is spot on. I do have a couple observations for you. Yes- When the DME detects an engine speed over 1200 RPM and the throttle switch is in IDLE position it cuts the fuel to the injectors. This isn't really to prevent runaway- It is to save gas and cut emissions to zero when you take your foot completely off the throttle while driving while the engine RPM is above 1200.
    It is still possible that a faulty ICV might still be the issue. I think this might be the case, as after you adjusted the idle on the throttle body and ran the DME in normal mode, the idle didn't seem that steady, and the engine was not running that smoothly.
    An other issue is that when you disconnected the Oxygen Sensor the idle speed went up considerably. This means in open loop the system is running rich. In may even be running so rich that the DME can't completely adjust the AF ratio. An overly rich AF would also contribute to a high IDLE. When rich the O2 sensor will read around 0.9 volts, and when lean 0.2 volts.
    It will be interesting to hear what you find from the shop when you have them check the O2 levels.
