increasing idle

[starlybruiser]

well i have a small problem with my glanza, its idle is at 750 ;) which is a bit on the low side, but when the headlights are turned on ( heater and other electrical loads have no affect) it increases to 900 which is i think the factory idle??? correct me if im wrong lol, so i was just goin to try and increase the idle a bit by turning the flat head screw on the intake manifold?? ive heard it alters the map and timing is this true?? is there any danger increasing the idle with this screw? cheers guys starlybrusier ;) .

750 is about normal...it leave it....it only raises when you turn the stuff on, as it has to work a tiny bit harder to power it i beleive.

i had to raise the idle on mine via the intake manifold, but that was because the person before me had lowered it to like 150 for some strange reason. what is at, at the moment is completely normal, i would just leave it.

750 is normal when warm mate, its healthy ;)

long as it aint stuttering its fine.

well if you look at the rev counter it is just below the 750 mark and it sorta varys at that point but the steering wheel vibrates like mad, and you can hear it stuttering if you stand behind the car and listen to the exhaust, cheers nick ;) .

tweak it up a tiny bit then mate, mine used to idle at that if not lower though, so its fine.
