I changed a blown head gasket (major PIA!) and after reasssembly the engine is idleing way too high. It's a 95 3.9. I've used the adjustment screw but I can only get it down to about 1100 rpm. I didn't have this problem before and the AIC, ignition components,etc are fairly new. Any ideas?
Thanks |

Look inside the throttle bore and see if the throttle plate is fully closed. The plate should be fully closed and idle air bypasses thru 5/8" ID hose.
Otherwise you have a vacuum leak somewhere. Example you left one hose off somewhere, or a gasket is missing or not sealing properly.
