SUBJECT: NEW AC TIME DELAY RELAY ISSUE: 07/86-863
APPLICATION: 1986 900, 900S & 900 Turbo
A new time delay relay has been introduced into new car production which delays the engagement of the AC clutch for a few moments after starting the engine. This allows for stabilization of the idle control before the AC clutch cycles on.

Cars before these numbers may also be fitted with the new relay (M86 only) if the car exhibits rough idling immediately after a start.
