ehh, i guess i just have good luck then. the whole setting the tps by ear thing was just something i learned to do a while back, guess its the same as setting the timing by ear. it works great if you've done it before lol.

anyway, any clues on weather or not i have a bad ISC? ive basically narrowed it down to that or a leak somewhere.

I understand ya.

Well what had happened was the car was idling up to 2k rpms.
I jump throught the usual hoops.

Track it to the dashpot. Order 1 in. I gave 48$ for it.

Hook it up. Everything running fine. I go for a drive and the idle jumps
back up to 2000rpm's And the timing is shot.

I side stepped it while I work on a larger issue with the engine.

I'm working both angles at once on it.

my dash pot is broken, but its stuck down, not up, so it doesnt touch the throttle at all. now that I think of it, neither does my idle stop screw. from looking down the pipe, it looks like its closing enough, but it may not be... hmm

well ill pull off the 3000 pipe and check that later, then double check for leaks.
