Default Tack, question

Hi folks.
I have a 75 Stingray and the tack. sits at just under 2000 rpm. It goes lower when you start the car by about 3-400 rpm and then sits at 2000 rpm after start up.
Would this be the printed board problem this year Vett had??

Thanks Kurt

Could be. Check wires to and from filter first.

bypass the filter first and see if it makes a difference. It's probably the board since it is reading 2000, but it never hurts to test it anyway.

I did the by pass, it did not make a difference. Looks like I'll be ordering one from you here soon.

Thanks for the reply.
