that's what the point of the tune is, to give back the idle control and drivability.
did you buy the cam for its performance or did you just want a s**t idle?? |

Throttle body. Of course! Thankyou!
Just spent about 3 hours checking over my ED for vac leaks, or whatever is causing my random idle. Had the screw wound out so far the butterfly was jamming shut, and isc unplugged and still couldn't get it to stall. Gotta love that raw fuel smell with the big cams eh. I'm running a Camtech 830, and was sorta disappointed with how smooth the J3 made it idle. Although I'm running very high compression so it still sounds fairly chunk.

All this talk regarding idles and cam So if one where to have a medium cam eg a 1636 and had it properly tuned with a J3 Would the idle pretty much be near stock ? |
