Bad Idle and Hard Hot Start Problem 700 1989


How about the radio suppressant relay, which sends current to the injectors. When was the last time you replaced this one?
XXX- I have to admit it's probably the original one.


I've had a no-start condition with this relay either burned out itself, or the connections push out of the silicon insulation.
XXX-The car has never NOT started. It's just hot it needs throttle and cranks for 2-3 seconds when hot (and now idles poorly, and surges when shifted into/out-of gear).
Cold, the car never fails to start on the first revolution.

XXX-Does the Radio Suppression Relay cause wandering RPM at idle?
I never quite understood the naming of this relay, anyway!

good luck,
el raidman
XXX- Thanks-Bob
