Re: 89 Camaro/Firebird 5.0 5-Speed TPI BIN
Mark,
I guess I have idle flare too! When I start my car(everytime) the
engine shoots up to 1500-2000rpm then drops down to idle after a few
seconds. I thought this was normal being a carb guy and knowing about fast
idle. Is this really that bad? Shouldn't a cold motor surge that high at
startup? If you have time could you tell me more details about the process
of burning a chip? Off list if you don't want to bore the list.
