ok, here's the deal:
one day I was driving around and everything was running perfect. I parked my car at my friends house and went inside for a couple hours. I come back out and the idle jumps way up to like 3000 rpm. I retarded my timing at the dizzy to get my idle to normal but it would backfire real badly.
I got home and reset the timing at 10btdc (spout out) and same thing. The idle would raise wayyyyy up and if I hit the gas peddle the rpms would rise and stay there for a bit. My vacuum gauge was reading 14"-15" which is normal for my car.
Well, I unplugged my IAC (with base timing at 10*) and the car started to idle like normal (maybe a bit lower). So I thought maybe something was wrong with it. I replaced it and same deal.
The only thing I can think of now is that the balancer spun on me...but it looks like it's fine and I have no vibration issues. I thought it was weird that it was fine...then I cut it off....and then it wasn't fine next time I started it.
Any ideas? Sorry about the novel
also, I had another thread with this on it but couldn't find it because every time I tried to go to it, it wouldn't let me for some reason.
