Thanks for confirming it.
I do suspect vacuum leak as the hot idle has been slowly creeping up. If I block radiator and let it heat so that IR heat-gun gives about 95C (203F) at stat housing I get idle bit below 1000rpm. Last year it achieved below 1000rpm at about 90C. So I will pull it apart and buy some gasket paper to make gaskets my self. At the same time clean everything from the TB etc.
Sadly now I have ISC and all gaskets for the newer TB and I already paid VAT and customs toll so wont bother returning it anymore. Probably not much market here for it, but cant help it. Oh well they weren't so expensive small loss compared to my stock market failings
I will probably depressurize the fuel line this weekend, have to see if I have enough time to pull the whole TB. Anyhow next weekend or something. I will take pictures and share them, maybe they help someone.
This particular vehicle is strange frankenstein piece of work. I have ordered with correct part numbers radiator (did not fit), brake booster (fit after hammering 1" dent to wheel well) etc. Luckily the parts dealer swapped the rad to another one and that did fit.
I am not sure if its because tag says its SWE car, but its has originally been sold by Suzuki dealer in Finland (neighboring country). Also could be that someone has scavenged parts from here and there and fixed it like this.
It has been owned by some safari company and they have made all kinds of self-made-patent-fixes all around the car.
And previous owner had made really shitty welding job and horrible electronics for additional front lights. I pulled all that crappy wire work away and did it properly this time. At least my wires are now water proof
