adjust the idle higher!!!! The ecu is feeding more fuel to keep it from dieing cause the idle is set too low.
should be a screw er somethin' on the trottle body.

its a 90 fuel injection and its not a vacum leak that i can find; i think it might be the atmosphere persure sensor because the zc doesnt have one that i could find

thanks
