Looks like your idle might be just a tad high.

I gotta agree with that...boy do I miss the sound of my EVO...

Just last night I bought a manual idle air adjuster to see if I can make my Twinkie sound a little better. 950 is a good number, it idles at 1100 like TD's.

By the way that seat is for sale if anyone needs it. The guy who bought it worked with me on price so I kept a few mods. I also have a Corbin seat for sale. All on eBay.

Default Not sure
Not sure where my idle is set but I am happy. We don't sit at idle very much.

MVI 8282 - YouTube


At a guess I would say that is about 700 rpm.

Thanks all. She runs well. We took a nice meandering trip out to Lake Fork and back yesterday. The high was only 94 to 96 degrees - a real cool front.
