Re: [DML] High Idle

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The most likely reason for air to be getting past the throttle plates
is that the stop screw on the throttle arm is not adjusted properly
allowing the plates to be cracked open a little. You might also have a
decel valve that is dirty and leaking. They are those little thingies
with the springs on the throttle plates. They should move freely and
seal tight.
