ok warm the car all the way up.Set your base timing spout unhooked at 12 to 15 depending on what gas you run.The more the better,stockers seem to like 15 to 16.Anyway do the timing then dis connect the idle motor and set your idle speed via the screw at 800 to 1000.Then get your volt meter and set your tps to .800 to .900 of a volt>reconnect the idle motor and it should idle rock solid.

mine is right about 800 as well, its just when its cold and first starts up after not running for a bit. it idles at like 4-500 then up around 1000 for a couple seconds and then down again.

so it goes to 4-5 then up, then down, then up and down and so on?
thats normal, the car is "surging".........its the computer.......a tune will take care of it..... ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

do you drill the existing hole in the tb bigger or are you talking about drilling another hole in the tb the same size??
