would a hole in the oil dipstick tube...
...cause a high idle?
Dont ask me why it was there... i was an idiot the first time i put my headers on. but anyways i finally replaced my tube and noticed it had a hole that went about 3/4 of the diameter of the tube and now my idle problems seem to be gone... I only went for a 3-4 minute drive, but it seems A LOT better (idles down at 1K instead of 2-3K. tube calls for a 950 idle.. but ill take the extra 50 rpms and be happy for now lol
