Fixkick,
I took it for a drive last night. My idle would not come back to the same place each time. I was seeing 1100 rpm, then it crept up to 1200 rpm. Prior to removing the TB, it held steady near 800. If I blip the throttle it seemed to settle at a different rpm.
Do air leaks cause the rpm to go up or down? That's my first guess since I had all the hoses out. Is it possible I did something to the IAC control on the TB? I was spraying a lot of cleaner in there to get all the carbon out.
I'll do some of the tests you suggest above. It sounds like I don't want to change that fuel air setting until I check the hoses?
I saw a youtube video where the guy was spraying the hose joints with some carb cleaner to find leaks. If the engine changed rpm, he knew he found the leak. That's seems most likely my problem given the fact that I had all the hoses off. Engine runs superb otherwise.
thank you!!
