So today I had time to change out the Coolant Temperature Sensor, very easy. The result? Engine does not hold idle at start-up, unless I hold the accelerator for about 5 seconds, and then it will turn out just fine at holding.
Here is a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi5jqkEix44 You can really here my disappointment because I was SO ready for this to work. Any thoughts as to what I should do next? I tried to remove the vacuum line from the throttle diaphragm, but I couldn't remove it. It felt like it was sealed on there with cement -------------------- Brand new 6gc owner! (sort of 2011)
