A few days ago I posted on this list about a problem I was having with Foster idling at about 1200 RPM (and adjusting the idle screw on the intake air distributor didn't help).
I looked around for a cause of the high idle, but couldn't find anything.
Today, I put zip ties on all the boots connecting the IAD with the intake runners. FIXED. I bought these from one of our online vendors and they were Gates brand.
I had first checked the manifold pressure sensor, but since it is more or less a black box that is still unmolested, I didn't venture into it. I dumped a lot of oil out of it however.
