Re: High idle b230f, out of ideas. 200 86

Tony,

All the settings have been checked and restored to base except the idle screw, it's in as far as it will go.

I only bought the car last thursday for $2100 it's a nice car and has been inland all it's life, no rust (has the m46) all service history has been kept up to date, average price is $4500 to $6500 over here for that model.

Someone has had this problem with this car in the past and adjusted things to cover it, I intend to get to the bottom of it. I'll let you know the results. The throttle body was well crudded, had not seen a clean for a long time.

Zee I read your posts on "high idle whooooas" I was wondering if you found the problem.

Did you see the movie "THE TERMINATOR" (1) I shall adopt the same attitude as he had until I find it. Still open to any clues out there.

Thankyou again. Ian
