Why is my 86 runs like crap,rough idle when cold poor performance slughish
My 86 Carrera runs rough I got it that way ,I replaced the MAFS ,O2 sensor ,I even installed a set of racing headers and a M&K GT3 muffler ,not much improvement!
It feels like perhaps has a vacuum leak or...? Suggestions ? Much appreciated ! Thanks Pelicans ! |
you don't provide much input on the problem but from what I get from your description sounds like vacuum leak
Have you searched for leaks with carb cleaner? |
make sure both fuel pumps are working. My 930 ran like crap on only one pump.

rough runing 86
I don't think the 3.2 Carreras has tow fuel pumps ?!
It idles very rough when cold, I know it doesn't have a Cold Start Up Valve so what could be the problem then? It feels very sluggish and low on power. |

you need to check for vacuum leaks and also have your AFR checked Have you checked that you ICV (idle control valve) is working properly? it may need a good cleaning searching on here for "3.2 idle" will give you many hrs of reading |
Clean the injectors first. If that doesn't solve it then start checking sensors and for vacuum leaks.

Afr ?
Pardon my ignorance but what is AFR ?
I think I have to take it to the shop ?...Only one problem ,there aren't any (Porsche mechanics)worth their beans in Southern Nevada aka Las Vegas. I think I have to drive al the way to Cali for that :(... Thanks ! |
Air Fuel Ratio.
