Wacky computer problem - HELP!! 1800

posted by  someone claiming to be a thirty year 1800ES owner on  Sat Jan 24 06:32 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Disconnect the throttle switch (ie the computer) and see how you car runs. The car should run fine (smoothly, consistently), but not be as powerful in acceleration etc. The computer was designed to increase/modify power, not supply it. If the car doesn't run fine with the switch unplugged your problem is NOT in the computer but elsewhere in the system.
