Setting the idle below the recommended speed can result in
hard starting, especially in cold ambient temperatures.
See Figure 4-29. The idle speed control cable (1) is located
on the left side of the vehicle between the front cylinder head
and the ram air scoop assembly (2). Idle speeds are listed in
Table 4-15. A 3/16 in. allen wrench may be used to turn
adjuster knob.
NOTE
Idle adjuster is located near the engine and could be
extremely hot. Use suggested tool for adjusting the idle
speed. Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate
injury.
The idle speed should be adjusted when the engine is at nor-
mal operating temperature.
NOTE
An idle speed too low can cause poor throttle response. An
idle speed too high can cause a slow return to idle.
