V6 no-idle
Hi Folks-
Any advice on likely culprits for a V6 that quits when the go-pedal is
released?
Some hints: after a lengthy suspension R & R, I went to start it up. I
forgot the 'do not touch the accelerator' rule and you can guess what
happened. A backfire blew off the main air intake hose, but didn't
apparently affect anything else. After reattaching the intake, I can start
and engine run with throttle open, but when closed at idle, the engine dies
immediately. I haven't found another disconnected hose or source of false
air. Any hints?
Thanks.
Pat Farrell
