Default 82 HIGH IDLE SPEED, NEED HELP!

A friend has an 82 auto idle at 1000 RPM. How do you slow it down to 650 RPM? I'm not familiar with Cross Fire Injection system. Could someone help us out?

Thanks

Make sure there aren't any vacuum leaks anywhere, which will cause a high idle.

The idle on the 82 is computer controlled. You can't set idle, you CAN set minimum air. If you do that you must balance the TB's and reset the ECM. Clean all IAC motors and the idle air passages. For more info look on http://www.crossfire.homeip.net
