Did a search and only found the instructions for a 94-95 car. I need the step by steps for manually setting the idle. I have converted to a fox body setup so i need the steps for the fox cars. I have an accufab 70mm tb and 93 cobra intake. I tried a iac restrictor plate and no luck. Im idleing at around 1100 all the time, warm or cold and it is annoying. My sct tune is setup for 800 rpms, so there is something not right. If someone could point me to a thread or instructions for setting the idle on a fox car id really appreciate it.

See the Idle surge Sticky by Jrichker at the top of the sub-forum page. There is a link provided by myself and later again by others that is helpful.

Good luck.
