After much testing, I've come to the conclusion that the brake booster on my '93 244 is bad. It is causing an idle surge during the warm-up process, usually only on cold mornings. One can tell it's tied in or due to the brakes somehow.

Have any of you had this happen?

What suggestions do you have on a replacement?

Thanks,
