Finally, Idle Set!
 

After about a month of messing around with every possible throttle and idle device on my car, I found a little screw within the linkage that sets up against a cam type set-up, and that set my idle down to 700. Whew. I kept messing with the wrong screw, the one in front, but it was the one behind that one. Well, I learned about coolant temp. sensors, throttle position sensors, idle speed valves, air temp sensors, learned how to read the diagnostic flash outs using a broken paper clip and feel I know a little more about my car now. I want to thank everyone who helped, especially BillUK and Mr.Nickleye and everyone else who kept throwin ideas out at me and gave me diagrams to study. It's a pleasure to be a part of this forum.

Thanks All,

I remember now that screw holds the quick release mechanism that stops the engine falling out the bottom. (only joking) having a sense of humour comes with owning a Supra. Good detective work, any chance of a photo?

Hey Bill
 

It's dark here now, but tomorrow I'll take a picture and see if I can post it. As far as quick release screws, I've probably left half my engine on the highway already so if the rest goes I'll just install pedals and a bike chain. I tell ya though, I love these cars. The only thing I MIGHT trade it for is that BMW Z4 that has a 3.0 straight 6 in a car that looks like it weighs half my Supra.

I drove one of those Beemers. Too bumpy.

Picture Help
 

I tried to insert a picture Bill, but I could not for the life of me figure out how. The insert picture icon asks for a URL but the pictures are on my hard drive. I know you have posted many pictures, how did you do it? I even looked at the HTML source code but it didn't help.

Mr.Nickleye, so you drove the beemer huh? It doesn't look real comfortable, I was just thinking it would be like a rocket squeezing the 3 ltr straigt 6 into such a small car.

You need to upload your photos to free hosting site to store your photos first, I use http://photobucket.com then copy the URL link from the stored photo into the script prompt. Or use Attached Files ( in Additional Options) and upload from your computer.

Picture (Hope it works)
 

In the picture of the throttle body at the far right, at the rear you will see a metal protrusion with a cut-out in and elliptical, quater-moon shape. there is a bar that rests against that, with a bolt that adjusts the bar. That bolt is what I adjusted to set my idle.
