#1: Engine idol runnin a bit too low Author: Gaz360, Location: LouthPosted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 9:19 am ---- Hi, was just wandering if anyone knew how to lift the engine idol a tiny bit.
When its warmed up it runs at about 800 ish. I think thats too low and rocks the engine a little and gives it an opportunitiy to stall as well. Just wanted to lift it 2 0r 300 more to help it run a bit smoother.
206 gti v plate.
