Title: Need Engine Help!!!!
Post by: Stinger on October 15, 2006, 03:41:21 PM

Having problems with my 88 Sami 1.3l.

When you first start it up it runs fine, idles great, revs up nicely.
Once the engine warms up I have no power. It will idle irractically and stall when given gas.
So far I have replaced the accelerator pump, plugs, wires, cap , rotor, ignition coil, retimed the engine, reset all the valve clearances. Still nothing seems to help. Please let me know any ideas you may have on the problem.   Thanks

Mine was dieing and the idle became too low. It was one of the vacuum hoses on the manifold . It was kinked and hence closing off. It was delivering vacuum. I put a piece of welding wire on it to hold it up so it could colapse. I reaaly should go spend the $.10 for a new piece of vacuum hose though. Fixed.
