Engine Tech / 84 cougar xr7 2.3 turbo
Set plugs tighter for the turbo 4s .030" . Yes the engine coolant temp. sensor can fail .The ecm thinks it is cold and keeps enrichment(choke) on. The temp sensor for the gauge is separate from the one for the ecm. The minimum idle setting is as follows; warm engine,remove plug to idle air control. Adjust throttle stop/idle speed on throttle body to 550-750 rpm on tach. Plug idle air control back in. Have you adjusted the throttle position sensor?

Make sure to get the shims.They make up the difference to fit the spindles. Someone put struts on mine and did not use shims.A gap of .127" makes for a fun ride.
