Hot Idle Compensator

The most liable problem with this device is that it will stick open. This problem will not be noticed in warm weather, but in cold, weather poor engine performance will result. If device is stuck closed, trouble will appear in the form of excessive fuel consumption and a decrease in engine power. If these symptoms appear and all hoses are connected correctly and are not otherwise damaged, replace compensator.
