Hey guys,

Thank you for the replys,

I tried with no luck yesterday to get a happy medium between the both. I was going back in forth between what I assume is to lean and too rich. I could only get it to just barely idle at 650. No higher.

So, cleaning out the sensor with isopropanol. I don't have any of that. can I buy it at the parts store? Also, I assume I just remove the intake cover and clean that way?

Gunter,

Thank you for the outline of the vac lines. If I had to guess something was going wrong I would say it is definately the sensor or the vac lines. What is the best way to deal with the vac lines, are all the connections easy enough to access, should I just start replacing them?

I do have the O2 sensor disconnected and I'm not really sure where my Timing is at the moment becasue I had my wrench give it a full tuneup about 3 months ago, back then he was having a little trouble adjusting the idle down, now I cant get the idle to go back up when it seems the mixture is on the money.

I am taking it to my wrench monday morning to adjust my clutch, I just had him replace it a week ago. I didn't feel like attempting the 20 hours worth of work for that job.

Anyway so I might just have him look into it but I wouldn't mind checking out the vac lines and cleaning the sensor before I bring it to him.

Thanks for all of your help,
