Surging at Idle
OK, a new problem for me. When I start up the '92, it starts fine, but surges at idle. As soon as I depress the accelerator, all is well. It seems to run fine but continues to surge at idle when I...

Re: Trans Swapout
Good questions, and THANX for the ideas. I don't think it's the PS belt. It looks to be in good shape, and the reservior is right on the money. As for the AWS not releasing, how would I check that?

Re: Two (nearly) complete cars!
Is the radiator available? Was on my way to work out this a.m. and suddenly, steam from the front end. Looks like the top tank has cracked right under the pressure cap.
