RE: Idle Surge issue..

Well finally I got it fixed. The guys at Stage Six were great they got the FITV I needed and I just installed it myself. Car idles perfect now, and it idles lower than before now around 500 rpms. Im just relieved that I got this off my back it wasnt really a obstruction to the cars driveability but just extremely annoying.

You should double check your manual, but I believe your idle is supposed to be ~650rpms. There is an idle setting procedure in the manual as well, just let me know if you have any questions on that.

RE: Idle Surge issue..

It's pretty straight forward, just two 12mm bolts holding it to the IM. Pull those bolts out, pop the unit off, spray in some carb cleaner and wipe it down real good, then bolt it back up

Good luck man
