TurboTobz Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Could have vibrated itself back off nothing wrong with adjusting it with that screw if there's any adjustment left on it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 would check everythin else first before resortin to the screw tho. just to b safe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 What's unsafe about the idle screw? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 What's unsafe about the idle screw? now your splittin hairs. check the more obvious things before goin for the screw because if he does the screw first, then the others without checkin with the engine on for example and the problems still there when he does turn her over, hws he gona know if hes got it? u get me?

TurboTobz Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 That's splitting hairs ^LolHow ever ya wanna try it you have a good list of starting points, if you adjust the idle screw do it with it running so you can hear if it's bringing the revs back down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PaulStarletSR Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 2 10mm bolts hold it on, perhaps they r loose because it does seem to speed the rpm up or down when altered Quote Link to post Share on other sites
