Just got my car back on the road,re-built engine,ported polished head and inlet,kent fast road cam,skimmed head to the max,it drives fine s*it off a stick,problem is i cant get the idle below 10,000 rpm,tried the air fuel mix,the idle screw and twisting the dizzy,is 10,000 rpm normal,standard is around 7000 is it not?thanks

10,000 rmp ?

 

Didnt know 205's could rev that far but if you mean 1,000rpm thats about where i have mine and every other xs if owned but auto data does say to have it at about 750rpm but i like it sat nicely on a grand

Yes i think you mean 1000rpm, thats fine for an idle speed on a TU, i never got mine to idle as low as 750.

Ha ha,yes 1000 rpm,its a 106 kdx bottom end too,thats a relief,been trying for weeks to get the idle down to 750,thanks.
