Is there any repercussions that could come from running it with no idle control valve? Or unplugged.... -

Just went on a test drive with my idle control valve unplugged and she's running way better!! Idles a little faster and no stalling when I come to a stop. -

Snagged a egr solenoid from the yard yesterday and tested it, fully functional. Cleared the code 34. Now I am throwing a codes 35 and 24. The purge valve and control valve.. Sooo good morning and here we go! -

So I'm showing an ECU code 34 which suggests a failed EGR solenoid or circuit. Any way to get around buying a new EGR valve? -
Does anyone know if a gen 1 snug top will fit on a gen 2? I have an '86

Hey everyone! Thank you for the insight. Yes, it is SPFI. Yes, I am aware of the correct timing procedures. I will definitely check to see if I'm off a tooth.. Here is a list of what I did during rebuild... Machined head surfaces and valves machined and seated, new lifters(rocker pivots), all top end gaskets, Cam seals, new water pump, timing belts, distributor cap and rotor(yes distributor was removed during rebuild) plugs and wires, all new filters(did not know of second fuel filter...location? ) replaced all fuel, coolant and vacuum lines.. New alternator, aux drive belt and battery... -

Where might I find such procedures? -

I will check that out. I just rebuilt the top end around 4500 miles ago, so it should be solid, but spoob happens eh... I had a steady idle of about 750 after rebuild and now petering at 500 or less.. Requires a lengthy warm up or else she will stutter and stall out.. Does all of this sound timing related? -
So I have an 89 GL severely lacking horsepower. I am contemplating where to start. I speculate it is lacking air flow or fuel. Any suggestions would be gratefully taken
