Amazing, absolutely amazing....
Got a S4 turbo in the shop the other day, brought in idling high. I liked the car, so i made an offer. The guy jumped on it. Initial comp test showed a little low, but I was optimistic. The car would start cold and run at 3000, until warmup where it dropped to 2800 and stayed. I checked for vac leaks, timing marks, the works. I yanked the IC to check throttle closing, and found that someone screwed with the thermal pellet bad enough to hang the throttle. I dug around a little more and noticed the BAC adj. screw was cranked all the way in, and the a/f mix resistor had been monkeyed with. Put a new thermo pellet on the t/b and readjusted everything; I haven't seen one run this smooth in a long time.
It's amazing the hard work some people will do to avoid simple troubleshooting.
