help my idle is jumpy !
hey guys
well my idle is kinda wierd now
the lowest it can go is 1200 rpm warmed up and it jumps from 1200-1500 when its in N jus sitting there. I tried adjusting the throttle body but thats as low as i can get it... When the car is in any gear it runs normally w/o the jumpy idle. Can anyone diagonosis dis problem ???

One time I had a bac that would not fully retract during its cycle. It would cause the car to idle at about 1100 to 1200 when warmed up. Removed said part and soaked it in fuel injector fluid overnight, blew it out and reinstalled same. Works fine now. Your problem may be a different thing all together.

LOL, these cars rarely idle correctly. Mine will idle after nearlly stalling. It's kind of funny, it moves up and down until it finds its happy medium. Cool car...anyone think it's suppose to do that? Btw, my idle become much better when i started premixing, my car's oil lines were messed up and not enough oil was getting to the engine.
