Full Version: Idle Adjustment
The idle on my '73 914 2.0 was about 1200 rpm and I was told to turn the control on the ECU counterclockwise. That works but a problem with rpm varying from 900 - 1400 at idle seems magnified. The engine starts easily but when I drive it, it bucks when I am cruising and not accelerating or decelerating. Does anyone know how to correct these problems??

I thought that was how D-Jet was designed. Don't they all idle like that?
Seriously, there are *lots* of potential causes. The best guide I've seen is here:
