Idle when cold
My car just had a top end and runs great however, when cold it will stall at a stop until warmed up. Then fine . Is it possible to bring up the idle just a tad ? Here is a picture of my idle after car is warmed up. Thanks, nick

See post 10 in this thread : Idle adjustment?
Bridge the B& C terminal of the plug, disabling the ICV control Use the screw to adjust the idle speed, I adjusted to 880 rpm-900 rpm (this is programmed in my version of the EPROM of the ECU), so just slightly higher than yours is indicating. |

Information is in all publications on changing idle on carrera
Basically a small jumper wire on the relay board plug Might have a vacuum leak What happens when you remove the cap on the oil tank. If you stall, you’re missing a restrictor in the oil line going to the throttle body Bruce |

Just so you know, when I start my car in the garage, it starts perfect goes to about 12 then slowly comes back down to. 8 ish. Then will idol nice . Only when I come to a stop will
It die. The shop wants it back in about 500 miles for oil change and valve adjust I think I’ll wait till then. I’ll just warm it up for a bit. |

You could always back off the idle air bypass a bit. Works for me.
