I know you think there might be a 300 ohm resister in the ECU in series with the HTC. You mentioned you had this issue on cold start up which the 300 ohm resister makes sense . The issue I have shows when the engine is warmed up well past the cold start up. I will still try it and let you know , I want to know . It never did have this issue with the IAD sensor plugged in. I can’t recall when it started just when I noticed it . If the test you suggest does not change it I’m not sure where to look after . One thing that keeps bugging me is when one fellow at pertronix told me when I asked it these units only fail by not worked and was told they can cause missing issues yet he didn’t explain why , this is one reason I was going to go back to points just to rule it out yet I can’t make sense out of what he was saying . Either that of there is a vacuum leak I have not been able to locate. I do know that sensor read what it should and changes as it warms up. </p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>-- </p><p class=MsoNormal>*******************************</p><p class=MsoNormal>Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org</p><p class=MsoNormal>Madison, Wisconsin, USA</p><p class=MsoNormal>*******************************</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>_______________________________________________</p><p class=MsoNormal>VWType3.Org mailing list - type3@vwtype3.org</p><p class=MsoNormal>To unsubscribe or change subscription options, visit:</p><p class=MsoNormal>http://lists.vwtype3.org/listinfo.cgi/type3-vwtype3.org</p><p class=MsoNormal>If you need more help, contact: gregm@vwtype3.org</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
