86 vanagon surging idle

Asked by Guru9Z1NS4 Dec 09, 2020 at 09:19 AM about the 1986 Volkswagen Vanagon GL Passenger Van

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

86 weekender vanagon surging idle.  The idle is fine at the beginning of a
drive and will develop a surging idle when it warms up.  The weather is now
30 degrees, but not sure if this is a factor with a sensor or unrelated.

Sounds like an IAC Valve. You could either clean it and if that doesn't work then replacement must occur.
