Power FC messed up idle..
I just installed my power fc, along with a bunch of other stuff (that u could see in the list below)... Anyway, i turned it on for the first time and it idles at almost 2000 rpm.. i hit that gas a little to stop it from warming up that cat, and before it used to go down to normal but now it just sits at 2000rpm and its a little jumpy too?? Anyone ever had this problem before??
I bought the PFC of a guy who had it tuned to mods similar to mine and i even compared the map on the pfc to another map off the internet and they dont seem to be that much different..?
Any suggestions, thanks for the help...

1993 R-1
-Indigo underdrive pulleys
-TKT Cold Air Induction with K&N filters

Sounds more like a vacuum leak, It is not always noticeable with a stock ecu when small as the ecu can compensate for it, but when installing a power fc it cannot compensate so you will notice high rpm idle and erratic idle.

My power FC defaults to 2 grand until it warms up. And you can't just tap the gas to kill it. Once it hits about 100 it drops to 1500 and then finaly to 750.
I don't have a commander so I can't change this yet. The next time I go see my tuner I'm gonna have him disable it.
But yea, mine does the same thing till its warm.
