86 Spider Won't Idle

Hi,

I am new to the site and in need of advice. I have replaced the clutch in my 1986 Spider Veloce. Now, the car starts but will only run with feathering the accelerator. It will not idle. It starts fine. The flywheel was removed from the car but allegedly lined up properly on re-installation. The two sensors were placed back where they came from. Will the car start if a sensor is bad? How can they be tested? Would the car start if the flywheel was not timed properly??

Thanks for any help you may be able to give.

Sincerely,

Mike Van de Kamp



Figured it out. He put the flywheel on backwards.

I'm baffled as to HOW a person could put a flywheel on backwards.

How can you mount the clutch pressure plate etc onto the rear of a flywheel?

The teeth, onto which the starter engages, would be offset & therefore the starter should not engage onto it.

Are you sure that the person that did this work is not spoofing you ?
