Re: TB + high idling issue when cold 700 1987

maybe, probably not.

quite likely your aic valve is clogged or the motor commutator is worn/burnt.

You can try pulling and cleaning the aic valve with carb cleaner. OTOH, if it is clean and easily works, chances are it's a goner.

Had to replace the one on my 87 760T at 140K miles, I think somewhere back in 1997. Car has 210 K on it now and idles fine in startup/cold weather.
