Re: running poorly 700 1986

Clean the throttle body and your idle control motor. Where does the click come from? I've had that happen on my car, it was(i belive) fuel relay behind the fuse panel. Does yours stall? Mine would fall on its face everytime it clicked (even while driving). I had to take it to my mechanic who proceeded to check the thing top to bottom and didn't find anything. However, he did change the distributor cap and the spark plugs, and shortly after that i swapped mass air flow meters with him, and my problem went away(or so i thought) Now my car runs lean and doesnt want to start when its cold. :::shrug:::

I havent checked my throttle postion sensor or my 02 sensor yet, but they're at the top of the list (and i know i have a dirty icm, i just havent had the time to clean it).

What year is yours?
