I did the "smog" mod and increased my fuel a bit. My idle is now higher(I know this is normal)
What screw do I turn to bring it down? I can't figure it out
Thanks, Matt
Smogs thread for the 1.9 is the same as the 1.6.The #7 screw is what you will use to lower your idle.Be careful as this adjustment screw is usually seized up.Spray it with penetrating oil and work it back and forth very carefully as part of it is plastic.I believe that turning clockwise lowers the idle.

When I did my adjustments, #7 didnt do anything for my idle, but I moved #6, and it seemed to do the trick
If the #7 screw doesn't seem to back down the idle it may be that its sitting on the #8 screw's stop.In which case the #8 screw would need to be backed out to lower the idle.The #6 screw shouldn't need to be touched unless your really screwing around hardcore with the pump :twisted:.
Edit:My mistake turning #7 counterclockwise lowers idle.
Thanks for the input guys! Lowered it a bit and sounds about right now! I don't have a tach (clock) so I can't tell for sure what its at.
well we should get you a tach shouldn't we. easy hook up, i think
Haha I'm with you on that one!
