(See High Idle Speed post below from 11/23)

Worked on Son's 88 245 DL; cleaned throttle body, which needed it. Reassembled and idle is now around 1050 - 1100 rpm in Park; about 900 in Drive. This is acceptable though the idle in Park seems a tad bit high. Next step I would guess is adjust the throttle position switch?

Also did a check and diagnostic for leaky gaskets and vacuum hoses; did not find any. WD40 spray around the intake manifold gasket resulted in no change in idle speed.

Thanks for the posts,

Robert
