I've just bought an 89 BB Turbo and it has exactly the same problem. I have taken off the Air reg and noticed that the slide inside does move when pushed with a screwdriver though. I suppose the only remedy is to swop it with another known good one. I havent got my manual, does anyone know were the feed comes from ie ecu or relay ?

Default Hi Northener

The feed is from the eccu timed same as fuel pump. Its a current device and draws about 250mA @12v but probably a continuity test is good enough to show that the heater element is working (continuity should exist) I have fitted a unit off a scrap yard car which is better than I had but I've been unable to find a new one?

I've heard of carb/intake cleaner freeing these up as its the carbon deposits that make then seeze.

They are a bugger for locking up though
