Is this something that has been happening, or developing, for a long
time, or did this behavior just start suddenly?
I got a call this morning letting me know he made it home. : ) It was
still running extremely rich, and need 2 hours after fuel stops to cool down
(the ice trick wasn't doing the job after a while). Otherwise the car ran
great. He still hasn't had a chance to investigate the problem, but will be
doing so before too long. He informed me that late last night a new problem
raised it's head, in that the generator light came on at low revs (like
slowing down for a toll booth), but went out once the revs rose again. He's
thinking this might be a loose belt though, as the light went out at highway
speeds.
So far on the list, he's going to check the MPS (for leaks), and the FPR
(for a pressure reading), and definitely tighten up the belt. But after those
tests, what else should he check, now that he's home and has tools? Any
suggestions?
