Posts kinda slacked off, and had to have something to post lol.
Just wondering...what do all of your cars Idle at?
Mine Idles at 500, and gets up near 600 when it gets warmed completely up. Just thought mine was a little on the low side (compared to most cars ive driven)...just wondering what all of yours are like.

I would raise it, most of the oil that gets to the cam comes from crank splash, if it's not turning fast enough, it could wear out a little faster, I would raise it to 900-1100. My parents Jeed idles at 500 but thats computer controlled.

My nova idles at 700. If I were to set the idle any lower because of the cam the motor would die. A lumpy cam with rough idle and setting the idle on the carb down is kinda a bad thing.

Mine usually idles about 1000 RPM's or 900. Now, here's a question. Sometimes my car likes to idle at 1500 and then drop to 200 and fly back up continuously. What the hell is that all about? Post here if you can think of something. Thanks

My oil pressure stays around 45 idle. Then around 60 normal driving....and if I really get on it, it jumps to 80+.

My dad's rx7 idles up and down alot. Its something to do with his choke. But it only goes up and down by like 300 RPMs. 1,500 - 200 is a big jump.
