Symptom/Condition, Diagnosis & Parts Required Information

SYMPTOM/CONDITION

Vehicles with air conditioning will exhibit no A/C idle up speed, which will also result in a slow and rough idle.

DIAGNOSIS

Remove air cleaner crossover.

Ground the carburetor switch with a jumper wire.

Start engine and allow to come to full operating temperature

Turn engine off and then restart. Observe engine rpm. It should be at least 100 rpm higher than curb idle.

The solekicker function can also be verified further while on hot restart fast idle by intermittently disconnecting and connecting the solekicker vacuum connector at the carburetor vacuum connection near the carburetor electrical connector. The engine rpm should rise and fall as the vacuum connection is disconnected and connected. If the solekicker fails to respond as described above it must be replaced.
