Re: How to set Idle and why You can raise the idle by turning the idle set screw on the TB, or by way of a custom tune. The problem with turning the set screw is that if you raise it much more than 150rpm or so you will set codes.

Re: How to set Idle and why It is very easy to adjust. The screw is a T15 torx. you will need just the small T15 bit, you can't use a screw driver or even the big bit because there is not enough room. I use the small bit with a 1/4 inch open end wrench. tape the bit in the wrench. Mine only needed to be turned about a quarter turn, but that will vary from car to car.
