Ugh...talk about a frustrating day. The idle on my 89 spider was a little high...so I decided to adjust it. I got it right at 950....turned the engine off. Pulled the vacuum hose off the idle valve to access the locknut....tightened the locknut....put the vacuum hose back on. Went to start the car and it would barely run! Now I cannot get the car to idle any faster than 600 RPM. The weird thing is...if I now loosen the idle valve...the car runs worse and eventually will stall.
What have I done! haha I'm thinking the vacuum line might have cracked when I took it off...or maybe I compressed the o-ring in the bottom of the idle valve too much?
So bummed out!
