Default throttle cable question, and idle question

1) Throttle cable..

ok i have a S2 Pro series IM , and i noticed the TB cable is loose, usually the table is you know, not too tight, but not loose.. how tight should it be? and how do i tighten it.. or is it normal? and can that make your idle bounce?


2) Idle Problem.

Ok, to say my idle problem isnt really a problem, but its just wondering me. When im driving then push clutch in the idle will bounce from 1-1.5 then after a few seconds or few bounces up and down iit makes it way back to 800.


i do have cams, and aftermarket cam gears, but the cam gears are set to stock..

anyone have an idea or similar problem to this?

thanks h-t

a too tight cable can affect your idle, not a loose one.
if it's loose it'll be completely rested when there's no pressure on it.

you say you have an idle problem, but you mention when you're driving.....so yeah, lost me on that one.
