power fc idle

[2zz corolla]

Hi tocau

Got my power fc installed roughly 3 weeks ago and loving it to be honnest.

i had a quick question in regards to what are the average idles people are having with there power fc coneceted in with a conversion harness.

mine seems a little too high and i was wondering if theres any thing that can be done to fix the problem. ( p.s i had a play in the idle section of power fc doesnt seem to do any thing accept for when i play with the fuel cut but that just makes it idle very rough.)

my current idle

cold 2500rpm

engine warm: 1200 to 1400 rp,

ac warm: 1500 rpm

If any one could offer some advice that would be great thanks , i have got the car profesionaly tunned and done that crazy long idle procedure.

cheers

There's a screw under the throttle body that lets you adjust idle speed. Your tuner may have bumped it up to prevent the idle hunting rather than tune it out.

sorry my bad !

Ahh yea , yea i watched him he didnt play with it but i guess maybe i could adjust that to get it to idle lower its starting to get a bit on my nerves , i am tempted to drive down south to as i hear theres a guy that can re wire the standard loom making so you only run the power fc ?

i noticed that when i pull up to a stop the car sits at 1400 rpm then if i rev the car to say 2300 and then let off throttle it bounces back to 1100 , from my understanding though even if i took it back to where i got it tuned, the tunner cant adjust the idle can he as its all controlled by the standard ecu ?

this idle problem is the final thing left and then i think ill finally have solved all the issues lol.
