RE: [DML] High Idle

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jon, I will jump in and ask: Is the idle speed microswitch working properly.
If it's not adjusted so the top screw is engaging and turning off the vacuum
solenoid before the bottom screw goes to the rest position, or not working
at all the vacuum solenoid won't shut off the vacuum to the ignition
distributor which advances the timing and will cause the higher idle. Fuel
mixture and vacuum leaks along with Idle speed ECU and sensor could but not
likely. You could have a bad vacuum line somewhere else.

I'm trying to tackle a problem I've had with my
delorean for a long time.  The idle is excessivly
high, about 1500 RPMS.  I was thinking maybe the
timing is off, could this cause it?  If so, do I
adjust it by turning the distributor? Looks awfully
tough to get to.
