I tried to adjust the idle speed microswitch adjustments (one is the throttle plate stop, correct? and the other the microswitch actuation). I admit I don't quite understand these adjustments (other than the microswitch actuation to kick idle down). I adjusted them because my idle kept sticking high (1200 rpms) until I tapped the floor pedal, where it would kick down to about 1000 rpms (a steady idel at this rpm). I thought I could adjust my idle from 1000 to the recommended 750 by adjusting the throttle plate stop screw, then adjusted the micrositch after this. It did lower the rpm, but it is now erratic, constantly swinging between about 600 (where it almost stalls) and about 1200, not settling in one spot (after warm up). Do I need to open the stop screw a bit more to settle the idle? How do I view throttle plates to set the stop screw correctly, without dismantling things.
