    up date::::

    fast idle still engages but.
    okay i was driving for a while and it did'nt do it.
    my foot got cold ( i only had one shoe on)
    i turned on the heat, to floor.
    then like 20 more minutes of letting it idle and i went to back up, it did it up to 1,500rpms AGAIN.
    so i opened the hood, took a look at the ac screw and throttle cont. screw then were fine.

    i looked at the accelerator cable, it was tight.
    so i pulled on it, not toching the throttle and the rpms went down.
    so its the cable, and the heater had something to do with it. . . . .

    but it still has problems that i still need to work out.

    oh sh#t.
    i found one of the problem's, it seem's like one of the vacuum lines for the f.i.u. is leaking.

    plus one of the vac. ports on it is broke too.

    does anyone know how to remove the fast idle cam???

    Fast idle cam is part of the choke assembly, so u have to remove choke housing to get to it. There are 3 screws holding choke housing to carb, 2 outside and one inside so u have to drill 3 rivets to get to it. Fast idle cam is at the back of the choke housing, not sure how is bolted there...

    UPDATE :
    i finally found that fast idle screw and i was'nt even looking for it!
    but i'm gonna try to repair the fiu.

    now for some reason the throttle controller works perfectly.
    what i did was turned the throttle stop screw all the way out.
    and the engine idle is based upon the throttle controller.
    i did this because the throttle controller usally resets the choke by itself.
    but it does'nt do it unless i turn down the throttle stop.
    so that works perfectly now.
    plus, i know the throttle controller works, because when you disconnect a vacuum line the rpms goes down, then a few seconds later the rpms raises up to a normal rpm.
    then when i shift from P to D the rpms adjust again, but when i shift from D to P or N the rpms are low then a second later it shoots up to 700 rpms again.
