Well I got my idle back to normal, finally.

It was pieces of freakin acorn holding the secondary throttle plates open a tiny bit. While inspecting the TB and trying to figure out how everything works, I noticed the part of the secondary throttle plates that sits on the TB when they're fully closed. Only they weren't fully closed because they weren't hitting the TB, but broken bits of acorn from our furry little friends.

Watch out chipmunks, I'm back on the road.

My advice to people with idle problems: check for freakin acorns holding open the throttle. Sure did learn a lot about the emissions system though, gotta admit that.

Thanks to everyone who gave their advice!

 

By a chipmunk!

Greetings!

my idel is wicked high and when i push the clutch in it seems to go even higher, like 3k rpms. I just got my rx7 and the engine seems vastly different from my old eclipse.. where can i find the throttle body???? i have the turbo ii top mount intercooler...

 

I hope you know it has no pistons lol! The throttle body would be attatched to the upper intake manifold.

 

Remove the intercooler, and it's right underneath. The intake piping closest to the driver's side/windshield on the intercooler is what attaches to the throttle body.
