4.2 idle setting

[Jcerb]

To set the idle correctly, what should i set it to? as mine is high! Also how do you connect a multimeter which reads RPM to set up with accuracy?

i,m suffering the same thing.. i think it could be the throttle pots and then to reset the adaptives via the software. Is there someone in kent who does this

I wonder if the "engine" section might cover it?? Just a wild guess.

[baguaman]

thanks mate.

Thanks guys! Just needed a tweek and now it's just right. Sits about 950rpm

[baguaman]

jcerb so what was the tweek needed?

Baguaman i just turned the csk hex head(behind drivers side airbox) clockwise which buts up against the throttle stop(which has a m5 full nut the other side)to lock it off a fraction with the engine off otherwise you would be revving the piss out of it trying to adjust it!
