car idles at 1500

[iheartmyteggy]

good or bad?

 

[rockadilla]

ALL the time?
Mine idles at about 1500 when I start it but once it warms up it idles at around 800

 

[iheartmyteggy]

yea all the time it warms up at 2 grand.
it only goes down when i run my a/c but even then it just idles down to like 1300

either the idle is set too high or you have a vaccuum leak. There's a flathead screw you can adjust near the intake hose, I think. I haven't had a DC4 in months so I forget if that fixes the problem exactly, lol.

i found the screw.
it was turned all the way up.
i turned it all the way down it helped a little it brought it down to 1200.
so like you said its probably a vacuum leak.
how can i find it?

 

[russianintegra]

look at the vacuums, all of them.. or you can do those test kits at autozone (never used before) theres some machines.. blah blahh

or the quick way spray carbuerator cleaner on the hoses with the engine running you'll find the leak REAL quick haha

ha yeah when i cold start it goes to 1500 hundred then slowly up to 2k them slowly back down as it heats up. After i've drove a bit and go park somewhere and come back like 5 minutes later and start my car. It idles at like 400 to 800 man lol.
