View Full Version : 81 Deville 8-6-4 continuous fast idle

I need some help in determining what would make my 8-6-4 idle fast all the time. It will not kick down, so I suspect the the computer is getting bad signals or no signals at all. I believe it to have the quasi injection system, so it may have a solenoid to enrich fuel mixture for fast idle or a funky TPS may be at fault, dunno. If anyone is familiar with this engine and its controls, let me know.

Hi KC,

Find Ape Man on this forum since he knows the V8-6-4 very well.

Good luck!

I got moved! All is better this way. Anywho, does anyone have capabilities to PM Ape Man regarding this issue of mine, it would be much appreciated. I cannot do to limited # of post's, apparently you need 50! Wo, bummer. If someone could accomodate me with an answer it would be great.:):)

check your idle speed control motor

Look for binding linkage, vacuum leaks and check the stored ECM codes. Sometimes the ISC motor gets stuck and will cause this. Should set a code or 2.
