Stalling Rocco Solved!
It took me a while to figure it out but I think that I corrected what
seemed to be a fucking nightmare.
The wolfie kept dieing on me at every stop light. It was more predominant
after a long haul on the highway and then coming to a complete stop. It
would not want to idle and I would have to constantly give it gas! It would
continue stallling at every stop light and it would take forever to regain
a proper idle. I fixed the vacuums thinking that there was a vacuum leak,
but to no avail. I'm gonna upgrade the negative ground straps this
weekend, but tonight I decided to disconnect the O2 sensor. VOILA!
Problem solved. Took the ole rocco on the highway, got her up 170km/h and
came to a complete stop at a stop light. No stalling and no bad idling.
Now the question is: do I just drive the car around without an O2 sensor
or shall I go buy one!
Thanks for listening.
