> Idle 200RPM's Too High, can't find any vacuum leaks

Posted this on the Bird Board too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The idle adjustment on my 74 2.0 D-jet is screwed in all the way. Idle is at 1100 when fully warm. AAR disconnected & plugged. Used starting fluid to check for vacuum leaks... there ain't none! Spent the better part of an hour sprayin here & there but
nadda:( Valves adjusted, timing spot on, Pertronics)

I was running an 044 ECU with an 043 MPS and the original 012 CHT. I switched them out and used the components from the old 1.7...

037 ECU, 049 MPS and the year old CHT but I can't remember what its number is!

What else can be causing this to idle 200 rpms high? Sometimes it's up to 1500 at a stop light? The AAR works and when it's connected it won't idle in the 1500 to 1800 range like its supposed to when it's cold. It starts hard, gotta keep my foot on the gas to keep it up to 1500+ then runs good after 5 minutes or so.

I'm perplexed:rolleyes: Any ideas?

Maybe I should just drive it & be content, eh?
