1989, 16V 900, with automatic transmission; 83,000 Miles
The behavior: Pulsey, rough, but even, idle especially when placed in reverse. In reverse the idle causes vibration. In forward gear, doesn't shift to third at the appropriate speed -- seems to delay shifting up.
I changed the transmission fluid and filter (Type F was used and I changed it twice (second time after a test drive) to get as much of the fluid in the converter out.
I found 4 vacumm leaks and fixed those.
I'd appreciate any ideas as to what would cause these symptoms.
Siggy
