Fast Idle

I have a couple of e-mails out right now. Waiting for a responce.

Guys,



Quite a few years back, I used to see Thrombetta solenoids in use on generator sets, maybe they would have something for your application?

 

[Philip]

Thanks for the name of this solenoid mfg. I hadn't run across this name before. Its Trombetta you missed it by one letter. But google caught the mistake.

I nabbed a junkyard idle-up adjuster from an '83 Caddy Seville yesterday... there was a similar one on an '86 RWD luxo-barge. This is the electric VARIABLE actuator, not the one-setting electric actuator (or its vacuum brother). It has a snazzy bracket that should be easy to adapt...



4-wheelers actually use these to idel up or down incrementally -- for CTD use, you may want to set the extreme 'up-travel' to be the desired fast idle...



Pictures to follow.

Some pic's would be nice. I am not familar with what you are talking about. I droped out of auto repair just before that time span.
