I have a 1988 325iX that I just replaced the intake manifold gasket on. Ever since I have done this, my idle has been close to 600rpm, my CE light has come on, and I have been plagued with overheating at idle problems. I convinced myself that there are no intake leaks with a bottle of carb cleaner but I cannot figure this out. I checked the voltage to the ICV and found it was only 6.7V. My haynes manual says it should be close to 10V at idle. Could this be my problem? (I cleaned the ICV and watched it open to about half way when plugged in, so I know it works)
Also, I seem to be running rich now. Is there any way to check my O2 sensor? Or would there be another reason that I am running rich?
Thanks for your help,
Brian
