Hi all,
I have recently bought a 1981 911 SC and so far have been very impressed, I can see why everyone loves them so much!
Anyway, I have read through the posts and seen a couple of cold start problems, however, I seem to have slightly different symptoms and was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to the cause?
Essentially, the car starts first time even when cold or unused for a while but the revs will fluctuate between around 10 and 1500 rpm for three to four minutes before finally settling down to the normal 950 rpm mark. It usually doesn't stall and holding the revs up with the throttle only hides the symptoms which return when the car returns to idle.
Don't know if the cold satrt unit is just dying, broken or set badly?
Thanks in adavance
