Re: Idle too high? 200 1985

Yes the wiring harness is starting to go. I had checked it previously and had not seen any signs of degradation except at the hot spot behind the alternator which I fixed. When I took off the manifold I had to tape up several wires and also wires at the firewall connector which had seemed fine before. I'm not sure that is the problem though. The throttle position switch is properly adjusted and the throttle body and idle air motor are clean. When I first put it back together I forgot the idle air connector and cold idle was about 750RPM. After I reconnected it the cold idle went to about 1000 but the warm idle was unaffected so I believe the idle air motor is working. I remembered to check the 700-900 FAQ after my original post but am not sure the info I found is applicable to the B21FT as so many things are slightly different with the Turbo engines. Any help on that anyone?
