Subject:      '91 high idle when warm.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi All,

normally I'd not post a message like this, but my van is sooo new, the
Bentley's still in the  mail...

my problem is a high idle (about 1800 rpm) when the engine get's warm.

It has new plugs, rotor and cap, and the adjustment screw is already
screwed all the way in on the throttle body.

I cleaned and made sure the idle adjuster/control valve was freely able
to move.... and that's about all I know to do at the moment.

Is there any other simple adjustment I can try while I'm waiting for the
Bentley ? (timing?)

Thanks..
