Re: [DML] Re: Manual Shifting questions - Now Idle issues

[Chris Shepherd <chrisau79@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,
Try disconnecting your Idle Speed ECU, black box under the tray behind the drivers seat with two plugs. Unplug both plugs, then start the car. If the idle is somewhat normal and stays there, chances are that's the problem.

Well, I completed the adjustment on the transmission cable this weekend.
After initially lengthening the cable - getting back 5th, but losing
Reverse, first and second - I shortened it 1/4 turn until I had everything,
so life is now good. I took the car out driving and put about 100 miles on
it and it shifts very smoothly.

I am still having problems with a high idle. I tested the frequency valve
and it is good. The car was idling warm around 2000 RPM's, and I started to
mess with the plug that goes to the idle speed motor and the RPM's suddenly
dropped down to a steady 900 RPM's... I thought great, the connections are
dirty, easy fix! So I cleaned up the connections, plugged it back in and I
was back at 2000 RPM's, and no amount of playing with the plug would change
anything.
