Thumbs up Problem FIXED - "Too lean"

Michael, you were spot on - the mixture/idle setting. Too lean.
I'm amazed at the difference! That mix/idle settings can have such an effect.
I think that they now may have gone a little too far the other way? Now, when I take my foot off the accelerator the RPM drop and then hang, up there at around 2k, then slowly drop back to 950 rpm. Maybe it was always set too lean?
Still, it certainly doesn't stall anymore and seems to be more driveable - now with the revs hanging up there between gear changes. Just gotta get used to it.
Thanks all.

Yeah, that's what I'd like to do - change the hoses, These old OEM hoses are a sieve - regassing every 6 months. I like your suggestion of a pancake fan for the decklid condenser. Was there sufficient room to fit it under there without mods?
Thanks Hladun, I'll check it out and your past threads.
