    Hi Pete,

    Aside from the 1 e-mail you have below, I only found one other listposting
    from in my current inbox which only goes back to jan-03. In neither does it
    mention the model and year of the car.

    Such would be somewhat required information for others to help you with your
    idle issue.

    Year, model, engine, country-spec (I'm assuming North American -
    "outlook.ca"?)

    Regards,

      Koll

    Subject: Getting a few things figured out

    Shortly after joining this list, I came across a few problems with my
    505 that didn't seem to be from the same planet as the ones they
    wrote about in the Haynes manual (which I obtained at great expense
    and with a similar good deal of trouble from the only source I could
    find on the web - in the UK. Dam thing ended up costing over
    $80.00, for a disappointingly tacky newsprint book from as mentioned
    before, some other planet.)

    It covers two fuel injection systems. Both Jetronic, neither mine.
    Mine has the air filter on the left side of the engine, rather than
    with a crossover induction pipe to a right-side location as shown in
    the pulp fiction manual I have. Mine also has a distribution pump
    with 4 output lines going to what I presume are four port injectors
    located at the point at which the induction manifold connects to the
    head. It has a throttle bypass valve around the butterfly housing,
    with two wires connecting it to somewhere - the computer,
    presumably. I have no idea how to set the idle down below the
    1800-2000 it currently seems to prefer.

    If anyone has a manual which covers adjustments of this system, I
    would really appreciate photocopies of the appropriate pages - or
    scans. I'd be more than happy to pay costs.
