I thought while i was replacing all my plugs and leads i would clean throttle body and intake at the same time. So got it all done, bolted it all back together, and she runs smooth and nice, but its revving too high. It was revving at nearly 2000rpm, but i did the hold foot to floor for 30 secs with ignition at ON position and now its about 1200rpm.
Any ides what it could be? Accelerator cable isnt tight. I was thinking maybe it needs resetting the ECU or something as battery was disconnected. Also i removed the TPS sensor i think it is, the little Mikuni sensor that sits on the bottom of the TB facing the front of the car. It had white paint on the screws to show were it was sitting, pretty sure i put it back the same, could that maybe need tweaking a little to one side or something?
I know before i did it the car used to rev higher then it should but about 1000rpm maybe not this high. The revs drop when in gear though, down to about 800rpm, which i consider to be were the idle should be. I have read something on here about the TB butterfly needing to be open slightly or something and to measure it with a multi meter but i have no idea what thats about.
I dont really wanna play with idle screws unless they are wrong, but would prefer to make sure all else is ok before i go masking another problem.
