I think it depends on how you got the screw adjusted on the BAC valve...
Either that or it's stuck open?

wow u were right ted, it was open to far i guess. i closed it back up via the screw till it wasnt sucking.
now i open it enough where it does suck alittle bit.
how can i get it to raise my idle bout 1500rpms when cold and drop as it warms up?

Yeah, I've been messing around with my BAC valve and E8 set-up recently, and I've found that you can adjust the screw too far for it to not close all the way. :P

I can't get the E8 to consistently hold idle, and I think it's a problem with the E8 programming at this point.

You just gotta play with all the parameters on the idle control...

Forgot if you had an E8 or E6X?

Here's the PDf file from v1.71 that does a good job describing all the parameters...
Hope this helps.
