Idle speed microswitch (was: No Cold Idle - More Details)

[Jim Strickland <ihaveanaccount@xxxx>]

FIrst determine with an ohmmeter if the idle speed microswitch is working
or not!!
After finding out how much the idle speed microswitch went for, I decided
to take mine apart...
The microswitch case has two pieces that fit together and is held
together by three pins (and glue, I think).
These pins are very small, and can be seen near the joint of the two case
halves... One on each side and one on the back.
I'm not sure how you'll get them out besides drilling them out, or
breaking the case. I found a lot of corrosion on the contacts of my
switch, which was easily remedied. I made new (removable) pins for the
switch from a paperclip. I think the half hour it took to fix it was
better than getting a new one for $75... How valuable is your time?
