ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve
DEscliptlon
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is n€cessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger, When
the engine is cold. the engine coolant su.rounding the
thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing additional air
to be bypassed into the intake manifold so that the en-
gine idlss taster. When the engine reaches operating tem-
peratur€, the valve closss, reducing the amount of air
bypassing into the manifold.

NOTE: The tast idle thermo valve is factory adiustsd;
it should not be disassombl€d.
1. Remove the intake air duct from the throttlg body.
