Default Just a quick question about idle speed....

Hello all,

I'm wanting to find out what I have to do to get my 2002 LS1 Camaro to idle a little higher without purchasing a $300 tuner to get it done. Anyone have any tips or instructions? Click z28@bettermarketinginc.com to email me with your responses.

Thanks!!

Find someone with a tuner in your area and give him $20 to raise the idle.

Without the tuner, what would I have to do to adjust the throttle cable? Or even the idle screw on the throttle body.. what does that involve? Any direction would be great! Thanks!!
