on the AIS motor, there's a screw with a hex head looking thing. you can turn it c'cw as if you were loosening it and that will push against the throttle lever while at idle causing the RPMs to increase.
have to ask... why?
Just seems to be a little lower than I would like to have. The screw that I think you are talking about controls the cold start up idle and if you run it out it raises the start idle way to high for a cold motor for me. Thanks

YUYJ-
if u find a old carb yj, they have a little electro push rod thing to increase the idle w/ you could incorporate this into your system
i got one at home i will snap a pic for u if u want (i am using it w/my FI system so its taken)
Thanks. I should just put a good tac on it and see what it realy is. Shows 800 maybe but when I open the hood she is just purring like it should. I would like it to be closer to 1000 rpm. :cool:
Hey - ever think of trying a good tach on that to see what it really shows?
