Was there any recent work done to the car? When did the idle problem start? Does the idle get worst when you turn on the AC? Answer these questions and then I may help.
There are a couple of reasons why a 1986 Isuzu will not idle. One reason could be the oxygen sensor and another reason could be in the fuel system.
Doubtful. Bad spark plugs would give you a rough idle, hesitation and poor performance. And they may also give you a P0300 code for random misfire.
Just changed plugs on my 1999 aurora and the gap was .05. It stopped a hesitation at idle too!
The idle for a 1986 Honda Accord is adjusted by a idle air control valve. These function by either tightening or loosening the valve. This controls how much air is allowed into the system, more air means higher idle and less means lower.
Will idle but want take the gas
Hesitation. Stumble. Backfire. Flooding. Hard cold start. Hard warm start. Poor idle. Poor mpg. Smell of fuel.
If a 1988 Trans AM GTA hesitates at ideal, check the timing belt. If the timing belt is off, the car will hesitate and die.
