TFS roller Rockers 1.6
255 Walbro fuel pump
TFS-51400004 Heads 170's
TFS Stage 2 cam


All I swapped was my heads and cam, since the swap my RPM's take forever to come down after a rev. So I started to do the usual things ie: tps voltage, and iac restrictor plate. I set the tps voltage to .99v in several spots and made the restrictor plate and with one of the holes just big enough hfor the car not to die, I rev it and still has the slow rpm return. Before the heads and cam swap the car was very reponsive and rpms came down quick. How can I check to see if my IAC is bad? and anymore sugestions on how you might have fixed yours would help... I am kinda at a stand still on fixing this.
