Searched and can't find a straight answer.
Well after the build of my mini-me, I don't know if it is idleing right. Feels pretty high. When I start it up when the engine is cool, it goes way up to like 2.5k rpm. When I push in the clutch, it drops down under 500 rpm. Kinda wierd. Also, each of my gears when at lowest, is a little under 2 grand. But still, when I push in the clutch, no matter how fast or what gear, the RPMs drop to way low (around 500) and sometimes it feels like it wants to die. I just thought this was kind of weird. Anyone have any suggestions? What does your mini-me idle at?

After months of sitting in a garage, I finally finished my mini-me!
It didn’t want to start at first, probable cause I have all new lines and hoses, had to prime some gas.
It ran very nicely for a minute or so, but then it started stalling. What can this be?

thnx got it. it turned out my tps was 'advanced' so i turned that back and she was running great yesterday. today i drove to school(20 min drive) and 5 mins in i got a cel. 10 mins in i noticed my engine temp was at half where normally its just below so i watched that and it just kept climbing up to 3/4 so i turned the heat on full blast and rolled down my windows. im in class now but i've got a break later today i'll find out what cel im throwing.
i know im low on oil, i was going to do the oil change today. i put in the same amount of coolant that came out but i'll top that off aswell. i also am going to get new plugs. my original ones were white when i pulled them out.
