wheres the idle adjusment screw?
High idle can be difficult to troubleshoot sometimes, but heres a list of things that can cause high idle.
1.Timing
2.Fast idle screw (located on the BAC valve)
3.Idle adjust screw (located on the back of the throttlebody under the stock intercooler) You will be able to idenify the idle adjust screw by the 8mm nut and the small set screw.
4.Sticking throttlebody
Try to mark or remember all original settings before you change anything, and I mean down to exact turns or degrees.
Do you have a book on your car? If you do you will want to look up -Initial set plug-
You will want to put a jumper wire in this plug before any adjustments.
