timjuice Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hey, long time lurker, first time poster. I have a 91 Loyale, had it for about two years now and am an issue with it thought I would tap into the collective genius of this board and see if I could get some answers. Last winter it started having some rough idling issues. When first started it would idle @ about 2k RPM for about thirty seconds, then would drop to 750, but start jumping between 750 & 2k, would drive just fine, and issue would go away after about 10 minutes driving time. Didn't have spare money to put in the car and other than that it drove just fine so I just let it be. Once it warmed up this spring that problem went away. and it idles regularly around 750 RPMs. However, now I have a different issue. Again, for about the first ten driving minutes the car is very unresponsive, laggy, and jerks when accelerating in first and second gear any time it is below about 3k RPMs, but after driving for about 10 minutes it responds really well and I have no issue. Any ideas what could be causing this? I love this car and want to do what I can to make it last. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
