    IAC and MAF

    I've removed the IAC unit from the TB and cleaned it and the passage, pushed it back to under 1 1/8 measurement and re-installed; but the IAC counts are still 61-78, even after following the "turn ignition on, (without turning over), then off", method.

    New T-Type!?!!

    I just purchased an 84 T-Type; it is running very poorly. although it did make a perilous 400 mile journey home! First, the exhaust is a diaster; it has Kenne-Bell headers and up-pipe, downpipe and no CAT with a cheap turbo muffler and ratty 2.5" pipe dumping about under the back seat,(with pipe...
