Yeah if you remove all the emissions stuff, thermowax, BAC secondary plates etc yoru idle will be jacked.. Its not a TPS thing...

I did this and upped my idle to about 1000 RPM and I was happy.. however when the car was cold it never wanted to idle..

I would be completely content with an idle at 1000 rpm as well,
and i really won't mind any inconsistency of the idle once everything is set (tps, timing, ect..).
I just don't want the motor to blow at anything over 5k rpm while i'm driving it, after all the work and money spent on the rebuild.


Has anyone had similar symtoms after a rebuild?
Or does anyone have any experience setting their own idle?

I don't know what to tackle first, Timing or Potential Sensor Issues?
