ok so i replaced all the vac hoses. i put rtv blue gasket sealant on the gasket between the LIM and the UIM. it says it drys in a hour and fully cures in 24 hours. do i need to wait the full 24 hours before i can start it?

Are you experienced?

If you used a new UIM gasket, no. Else, I would let it dry at least an hour. The engine heat will dry it so you will be fine. Im not sure what temperature the blue RTV is rated at if you used is by itself with no UIM gasket. I use the copper RTV when using it on anything engine related due to its high temp resistance.

so i got all the vac hoses changed out and shes running really good except for idleing at 2000 rpm. i let her run for about 30 min before i took her out for a drive. all went just fine. no hestitations or anything whet so ever. i idled down with the air adjust screw and brought it down from about 2300rpm. what could be causing the idle to be so high?
