Hello, I am curious about my idle speed in my car. Mine is lower when i get it started like 200 rpm less tha when its up to temp. So I have to either set my warm idle high or to get my idle somewhat reasonable I have to really watch my idle when cold to keep it from stalling.

I would think that the car is supposed to be at a higher idle cold and then settle when warm right. BTW this the the efi 93 car.

Matt
