on mine, i pulled the rubber plug off of my throttle body (you
ll see it, lower right hand side) and theres a screw under it. Take a flathead screwdriver and turn it. I forget which way idles up and which idles down. I just did this tonight, worked like a charm-very easy. Good luck man

mine is doing the same thing eversince i did the swap...bp motor on my 323 hatch.
I've done everything. Check this replace that, check this replace that... then i found out that it was my fuel pump. i was using my sohc pump instead of dohc pump.
I have no idea wut ur mods r but just giving u an idea.

i see the screw at the end of my throttle cable on that little assembly there, but no rubber housing...

ok, i found the screw you're talking about. and true, turning it up does increase the idle speed, it also causes my car to not kick down to low idle as quickly. For example, when i come to a light and take my foot off the gas, it will stay at 1500 for about 5 seconds now, and then go down to 750 whereas before it would go down right away

Hopefully that was the answer you were looking for- the only reason I knew that was because I just seen that on mine last week and wondered what it did, so I tried it out. Good luck
