  • Rpm problem

    My factory 87 speed density motor, idles at 1k. I turned it down too 500 and it sounded great but couldn't run for shit so I put it back at 1k. I had the same problem on my last car and I forgot where to start looking.....

    Base idle reset.

    However, I have found that a lot of foxbobies idle around 850-900 when the factory tach says 1000.

    Look for cracked vacuum lines as well.

      Alright. I'm sure it's at 1k or more. I can put it in 1st and cruise at a good speed before I change to 2nd.

        Yeah, it's idling too high. LOL.

        Check for the vacuum leaks, then look up "Base idle reset". I can't recall all the steps from memory.
