Hello, I'm new to this board. I have a 90 Tercel EZ that is in general good condition except that it suffers from a fast HOT idle condition. Cold Idle is fine except that it takes a few tried to start when extremely cold. I don's see this as a problem as teh HOT idle issue. I hope that I can get some feedback from the members of this board. Hopefully I can offer feedback in return. I've owned a 80 Corolla in the past and my family has or has had severtal toyotas.

Samhummer and Certagemmy both need serious therapy.

They can't seem to find the correct repair manuals for the Toyota models called Women. Too bad I wasn't an admin here.....i volunteer folks !

Wopjob--> does your older Tercel have fuel injection ? What is your technique to slow the idles once it's hot. Do you have a tacometer ? What are the Rev's indicating when fast idling when hot.

Hey Samhummer.....when you fart..does that release pheremones ? I think you are a hormone yourself eh ? ROFL !

Older? barely broken in at 147K miles. This is the 90 EZ model, no luxuries like tach here. The car has the infamous sliding venturi carburator (3E engine) I have a Chilton manual. The fast idle is kind of low but adeguate to warmup the car in the cold without stalling, I would keep it that was. once the car becomes hot the hidle rises, I can hear it when I'm at a stop light for example. I don't have a portable tach to really know how fast the car is idling. At one point I had the screw turned all the way clockwise now I backe if off a bit but did not make a lot of change. This is the screw on the right side of the carb (as you look at it from the front). I will try changing all the small vacuum lines next. I also bought a bottle of Sea Foam but I'll try that only after I change the lines.
