NO. STB-83-14-010

DATE December, 1983

MODEL 1984 Turbo, Cordia/Tredia
In order to optimize idle quality and driveability of 1984 turbocharged Cordia/Tredia models, it may be helpful to pay special attention to the items listed below.


ISC/TPS ADJUSTMENT - IDLE QUALITY

Be sure the Idle Speed Control and Throttle Position Sensor are adjusted as described in STB-83-14-009.


FUEL INCREASE SENSOR - COLD DRIVEABILITY

Since the fuel increase sensor pin is in the ISC connector, good cold driveability depends on the connector being properly connected.


TROUBLESHOOTING ROAD-LOAD SURGE

If you should encounter a road-load surge condition, check the following:
^ Is inlet air hose from turbo to mixer body misaligned or loose?

^ Is pressure exchange solenoid valve not operating properly?
^ Are spark plugs misfiring?
^ Is there excessive resistance or poor insulation in high tension cables?

^ Is O2 sensor not functioning or a poor connection?
^ Is air cleaner pressure nipple clogged or hose restricted?
^ Is EGR valve opening prematurely?

For more troubleshooting information, refer to the chart on page 14-10 of the Cordia/Tredia Service Manual.
