Boy, if you guys figure this out, let me know. My mechanics had my 81 SC for a month off an on and still didn't work out the problem. Mine idles around 2.0-2.2k most of the time, except when the ambient temp is above 75F (and even then usually only at night), when it will idle around 900-1k.
The mechanics played with it, replaced the WUR (as I recall), and got it to stay down closer to 1k, but then half the time the car wouldn't idle at all. They ended up pretty much setting it back to where it was when I got the car about a year ago.
Also, I note that the engine oil temp guage seldom gets more than a hair or two past the white box at the bottom. Haven't had the guage tested, but assuming it is working properly, might there be a relationship between these two problems (i.e., does the oil temp sensor communicate to the WUR or other part of the CIS system to adjust the idle speed during the warmup cycle)?
