    What have you done to your square lately??

    @gmbellew Glen, thanks for the feedback. I have researched the code 21. I also looked through the Fuel and Emissions Manual at the diagrams. I think I want to try bending the tab as you suggest. No scanning ability other than the paper clup trick. I would need to borrow auto-meter, or go buy...

    I went ahead with my initial plan to adjust idle again. When the IACV was unplugged I adjusted the torx in the TBI up a quarter turn. Plugged in IACV then disconnected the battery for 5 minutes. Reconnected the battery and fired her up. It starts the same. I drove it. It is driving great, but...

    So back with the truck. OBD1 is reading code 21. I was initially planning to redo the torx up 1/4 turn but not sure since code 21 is TPS malfunction. Typically this means idling high from what my research has shown. The truck is running great after the most recent adjustment but service engine...

    After the OBD1 TBI torx adjust to get the idle down the truck will take a long crank on ignition before turning over but then will run great. After first ignition and it has been driving it cranks up normal. It idles high for about 3 or 4 seconds then drops down to a good sounding idle, and...

    Not the platinum stuff. 80's and 90's TBI don't need that. Stock style is good unless you have modified from stock.

    Long blathering post on window install is now edited. Sorry all. Pulling the rope seemed to get the outer lip over the spline but we both had to really push it as delicately as possible but also forcefully to get the seal rested on the spline.

    Ha! Lol. Yes it is a beeaatch! Here is how it went: Appointment was a week late because of rain and they were so booked up that I could not drive in for an earlier appointment. The guy arrives at 10:15 for my 8:00AM-5:00PM window, so good start. He pops out of the van and we chat. He is down...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Pulled the air filter off and looked around in there. TV cable still connected. IACV, TPS, EMC, and all other electronics still plugged in and ready. So then naturally as a dude does, I went on the 'set base idle' path and decided I was going to get my engine idling as it should. A big handfull...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    So, drove it to the cruise in yesterday, and that was fun but it sure had a couple moments on the way there when the gas wasn't going again. When we left it didn't have a very good sounding ignition, but drove home better than on the way to the show. When warming up to go to the cruise in it was...
