Is there a sensor or does the ECM control the low idle governor on these engines It seems as though I had fixed mine for a short period of time when I put in new batteries and new terminals on the battery cables. I left the batteries out for a couple of days. It did start working for a...

thNks for all the help. I'vve got some info you guys might want to keep in your memory banks On a whim I disconnected both batteries and left them that way for 2-3 days. In he process, put some new cables on and new batteries. Fired it back up, and I'll be darned it starts in 2nd gear like...

I'm trying to find out the terminology (can't remember to save my life) for when you take off from idle in second gear, and you don't give it quite enough throttle - the engine will ramp up a little so you don't kill the engine. What is that called? And any ideas why mine isn't doing that...

I know this has probably been hashed over a bazillion times, I'm going on a long trip and I would sure feel a lot better if I had a fairly easy to install kill switch somewhere. I tried getting at the one on the clutch pedal, but phew! pretty tough. Any suggestions out there? I'm open to...
