idle

[jimmygez1961]

i like to know whats the idle speed with the a/c on with the car in park and it in gear because my car idle at 500 i think it should be a little higher

It's discussed in this thread (starting at the third post). Several people mention that theirs idles at 500 RPM. Mine idles at 500 RPM, and while it seems like the A/C is struggling to cool the car it doesn't idle rough. I think it's set that low for emissions.

Whatever the idle speed is it's probably not adjustable except through a software update.

What? You can't turn the idle adjustment screw in a little? It's the one by the carb with the spring on it that butts up against a stopper.

When I open my hood all I see is plastic

Yes! Then set the point gap using a matchbook cover.

its between 500 to 800 so between those are OK

below or higher is a problem

Mine is at 500 too. The dealership i work at (hyundai) said it's fine. When my car is warm it stalls sometimes when i start it but i also need spark plugs

No stalling, but I do have a rough idle at the 500 mark.
