Engine Idling High
#2
well, thats a hard one. that screw on the throttle body throws my engine anywhere from 550 on up to 1100, so aside from that, your timing is probably a little off. aside from taking it to the shop, i'd just say adjust the throttle cable position a little lower, that might help out a little bit.

oh, a little side note, do you have any other problems with the car? do you leave it running a long time at idel and leave it set while you're off doing something, then i wouldn't personally worry about your idle, not a sign for anything i've replaced, and my whole ignition, fuel and air intake systems have been replaced on my car, so i see no problem in a high idle. peace

mine idles really low, at about 250-300rpms. it doesn't kill or hesitate at all though and the lights don't dim. think it's fine or should i raise it a bit? it sounds kinda cool though, it's got a little rumble almost to it.

Other than that the car runs fine. Could it be the Distributer cap and rotor (I've replaced them recently). Or could it be the spark plugs ( I replaced those recently - the ones I bought did not need any gaping).

250rpm's is what i've noticed on the tach once the car is warmed up. when it starts up it sits at about 1000rpm, then lowers to around 250 after a few minutes, depending on the temp outside. i must have a strong electrical system or somethin cuz no light dimmage for me.
