Engine Tech / IAC for 1983 Turbo Coupe?
Yes, but not by me. Time to get out the voltmeter. After a rather rigorous review of apparently relevant posts I was hoping to try the quick and easy approach first. I am getting the impression that one does not find IACs for 83 TCs and I find no information on the incompatibility with 84 - 88. Perhaps this is why the professional working on it gave up. Thanks.

Back to the drawing board, it seems.

And would this then imply that the IAC is superfluous as long as I warm it up adequately? It will idle if I get off the gas gently - as when coming to a stop. It is only with the foot off the gas shifting (for example) 3rd to 2nd for corner while braking that is essentially just shuts off. No, I am not that skilled to heel and toe all of these.

I have everything running well on this car except for the annoying stalling when I am off the gas while shifting. I have learned much from searching the forums on the subject. The IAC appears to be the problem. Where can I get one? No problem getting one for 1984 to 88 - but everywhere I look I am informed that those are incompatible with 1983 - although they certainly look similar. Any assistance will be appreciated.
