High Idle? What is going on?
« on: March 21, 2010, 08:54:42 AM »
Ok heres the deal (short version). I had a tree fall on the top of my sj410, so I found another body put it on hooked up all the wiring and started the truck. Normaly the truck runs at a high idle when it first starts but then idles down, it does not do that anymore. However when I unplug the vacuum advance and the other vacuum lines it idles down, but not to the point where it should be, but close. What is going on? Keep in mind I did not un-hook any of these things in the process of putting the new body on.

I checked the cable, I checked the accelerator pedal, I checked everything. I did work on it today and one plug on the wiring harness that was not attached before I hooked it up and everything seems to be fine now. I would like to know what the timing is supposed to be set at on a 1.0L, if anybody knows?
