Hi
Got the ol 90 I'm trail rigging, when it was the wifes' it had major heating issues due to a clogged radiator, so I rerigged the electric fan so it stays off unless in defrost or ac, then is full time on, and put a 160 thermostat in.
It had had a tuneup, but after I dropped the temp it started getting 90miles to a tank
Got a new radiator in it, and today I put a 195 thermostat back in, came up to temp just fine, but now if I don't let off the gas real slow it dies, when it stays running it is about 250rpm at idle on the tach, was about 500rpm with the 160 thermo.
Any thoughts on what may be causing this?
I know to search, but frankly, we have dial up at shop, and this pc is on a 33.6 modem, lol
Thought I'd post this now and get a head start for when I get back on cable tonight in about 5 hrs, lol.
Thanks ya'll
