Throttle cable adjustment ICV issues
I have a e36 M50 1995 BMW 325iS. I am looking for a guide on how to adjust the throttle cables. I have done some work lately which required removal of the throttle body. Once I put the car back together and started it the engine revs really high to around 3000rpm then drops down to 1,200 and fluctuates between 1,200rpm and 2,000rpm. A friend of mine thinks my Idle control valve is bad. I believe the two cables are not adjusted properly possibly even worn/stretched out.
Also is there a way to tell if the Idle control valve isn't working besides an OBD-1. It's a $300 part and I'd rather not replace it.
Either way I cannot drive the car like it is and am looking for any tips! This is my first post so if more info is needed let me know.
