Rep Power: 340

i adjusted my throttle cable, and i didnt like it.. so i set it back close to how it was.. now when i turn on the car, it idles at 800-1000rmps,but after i drive a lil, it goes down to 600-700rmps.. and now, its starting to eat gas. the gas might be cuz i filled mine at fast track (i was riding on E and it was the closest gas station).. but the rmps kinda bug me.. help[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

i asked my friend about this (he knows alot bout cars) n he told me about the rpms is that it does that so it warms up quicker.. but yet, it didnt do that before.. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG] and as for the gas, it turns out to be fast track.. they have crappy gas

That's "almost" normal. To answer the first question, I dont know about the milage problem, but it is supposed to to idle around 700 after its warm. It idles higher after starting b/c the choke tells it too. Like Hote said, its the way to keep the engine from stalling when cold and to get it to warm up faster.

I say "almost" b/c after starting, it should idle around 12-1300. So if anything, when you re-adjusted your cable, you set the idle a little too slow.

it's normal........ mines idle at 1500 rpm when it's cold... and idle at 600 or 500 when it's running

my question is why did u put the throttle back to normal
i love it drag racing has a new meaning
the only thing i notice is that second gear lags alot

i duno.. somethin bout it.. dont get me wrong, i love how it speeds up more.. but then gas milage, maybe screw with timing, stiff pedal.. stuff like that..
