high idle, 3000rpm idle Options

[slotty008]

Hi guys ,
I just hope that someone could help us with the idle of my '75 2.0. I have the car for almost 7 years now and idle was always a little bit too high. We have been trying to correct this but it got worse instead of better. We changed the distributor to a 123 ignition, we changed all the vacuumlines, the AAR has been cleaned out and the idle screw is completely closed.
The car starts at 1600rpm when cold and once it is warm it goes to 3000rpm and the idle stays there. The car pulls very well , a lot better better than when I just had it.

Now that I'm retired, I've finally found the time to finish the smoke machine. I used a pickle jar, 2 car valves, an old bicycle pump, a 10€ soldering iron and an old tube from a tire pressure pump. I had to seal the car valves and the soldering iron with Tec-7 because too much smoke escaped there. I mounted a lid from an aerosol can on the tube of the tire pressure pump. It fits exactly on the throttle body. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Yesterday we did the test and a little smoke is escaping along the axle of the throttle valve. So I will have to look for a better throttle body or find someone to repair it. All the vacuum lines were tight.
