idle setting prcedure
During my battle with getting my car to run I messed with the idle screw on the throttle body and the screw that sets the stop for the throttle. Anyhow it runs rough at idle and hesitates. Is there a procedure to "balance" these two screws?

www.Clarks-Garage.com has a procedure to check the TPS on the throttle body.
http://www.clarks-garage.com/shop-manual/fuel-06.htm This may help to reset the idle and stop positions. The original idle problem may have been more complicated than just the set screws. Good Luck John_AZ 1988 924S + 1987 924S |

Clark's also has the procedure for bypassing the IAC and setting idle speed. As for the set screw, it should just move the throttle plate a squidge from hitting the sides of the TB.

the idle stop should touch, then another 1/4 turn and this one needs to be set right.
