I'm pretty sure you can find the base idle and timing figures on a small sticker underneath your hood.

 

Standard value: 850 ± 50 r/min

NOTE: The engine speed may be 20 to 100 r/min lower than
indicated above for a new vehicle [driven approximately 500
km (300 mile) or less], but no adjustment is necessary.

NOTE: If the engine stalls or the engine speed is low even
though the vehicle has been driven approximately 500 km
(300 mile) or more, it is probable that deposits are adhered
to the throttle valve, so clean it.

 

huh... I do the same thing but Im hoping its just the BOV....

I've noticed the past two weeks; when I pull up to a stop light, sign, etc, and press the clutch to put the car in nuetral, the idle bottoms out to about 300 rpm for a second, then jumps back to regular idle (1000 rpm). I can almost duplicate this every time. I DID A SEARCH, and didn't seem to find anything...


mine does that too, except mines not stock. i have a 3"in turbo back exhaust, mbc,drop-in k&n filter, and my car retuned. could it because of the oil in the k&n filter clogging up the maf?
