much force when bottoming the screw.

gold idle screw in small increments until vehicle idles at
approximately 500 rpm. Re-connect I.A.C. connector

the throttle body and airbox. Disconnect PCV, I.A.C. (Idle Air
Control) tube, and inlet air temperature sensor connector, if
applicable.
3. Disconnect the return spring from the linkage and unhook the
throttle cable by opening the throttle by hand and slipping the
cable from the cam groove. Disconnect the cruise control cable,

body on the intake manifold and secure.
