'87 Delta Idle issue
My 1987 Delta 88 with a 3.8l V-6 is starting to act up when starting. It will not idle, but when I give it gas it will run. Any suggestions?
It just started doing this today. although it has had a rough idle. Thanks! Bob:

Re: '87 Delta Idle issue
Any reasons why you posted in the Cutlass subforum? You may get a better response at the Eighty Eight subforum.
Thread moved to Olds Eighty Eight.

Re: '87 Delta Idle issue
Any trouble codes? I vote that you need new plugs (AC Delco ONLY!) and wires (don't get cheapies). Or just a basic tune-up. Filters, O2 sensor, plugs, wires, and a bottle of injector cleaner (chevron techron or lucas would fix you up niceley).

Re: '87 Delta Idle issue
The plugs and filters are brand new. Wires are in good shape. I will check to make sure the plugs are tight. I am thinking a bad injector since it will not idle. ??? Thank You!

Re: '87 Delta Idle issue
Umm...you didn't buy Bosch plugs by any chance, did you??? If you did...then that would be your problem. Did you gap them correctly?

Re: '87 Delta Idle issue
No, I use only AC plugs in this car. Turns out it was the AIC valve.
Thanks for the suggestions, Bob
