Cadillac Repair: Engine Idle Sensor, auto theft insurance claims SIU investigation, denial
Engine Idle Sensor.jpg  
Hi Rob,
I have a 1979 Cadillac Eldo Biarritz. The engine races when I start it and when in park. I have twice ordered an engine idle sensor from Cadillac King in California and twice they have sent me the part, on which the plunger is fixed with epoxy. Is it supposed to be this way? My mechanic says no - you should be able to adjust it to the particular car.

Answer
Hello

Its been a very ong time since I dealt with TBI but I knew the part you are referring to as an ICS or idle ontrol solenoid. We also called it a stepper motor because it had steps in it for adjustment. I would have to agree with your mechanic on this one.

Call the compay and ask them what thier story is.

God luck.
