Hey Jeff - what's the ICV?

As far as behaviour on snap close goes...I don't remember if I tested that. Fact is the last time I looked at this issue was last spring or something. I seem to recall that the problem occured on a soft throttle close only...key point being that activating the microswitch manually, by pushing the throttle closed would drop the idle. I think the snap close resulted in normal idle.

Marcus was calling for another reson. He needs some info on that cradle we used to drop the engine last time. We're planning to drop the engine again to solve the leaking oil cooler problem. It's leaking like a bastard, either from bad seals (I don't think so) or a ruptured oil passage (that's what happened to me once). The plan is to put 10 psi air into it and listen for leaks. Maybe rig up a pressure guage to watch the leakdown.

Anyway - we'll be in touch as the project progresses.

BY THE WAY - My 996 is for sale because I'm moving to England. Are you interested ?

cheers
