The engine in question is an HE from a mid-1980’s XJ-S. I’ve
changed the spark plugs, gapped them at 0.25, put new plug
wires, distributor cap, rotor. I set the butterfly valves at
0.002 inches, checked all of the vacuum connections, plugged
the leaks. I have closed the idle setting on the AAV as much
as possible. My problem is that the it still idles high…
about 900 rpm. It’s better than it was at 1100 rpm, but I’m
not sure what to do next. I don’t have any specialized
equipment for checking settings on the ECU. Is there
something else to check?? Also, what should the ignition
timing be set for? Is 18 deg BTDC correct?
Thanks,
