Idle Speed & Mixture: Notes

Ensure air cleaner and all electrical connections and emission hoses are properly installed. Ensure throttle cable is not binding.
Set parking brake. Install tachometer. Start and warm engine to normal operating temperature. Ensure all accessories are off. Accelerate engine so engine speed exceeds 1500 RPM and then allow to idle.
Remove cap from diagnostic connector, located in engine compartment, near fusible link box by the battery. Connect a jumper wire between terminals "C" (Black wire) and "D" (Blue/Red wire) of diagnostic connector.
Note idle speed. Idle speed should be within specification. See IDLE SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table. If idle speed requires adjustment, remove plug and rotate idle speed adjusting screw on throttle body to obtain correct idle speed. See Fig 1 .
