Idle problem........

I just bought a 2nd Gen RX7 and while idling it revs up and down maybe 300 to 400 rpms. Is this a sensor that needs to be replaced?

Thanks in advance,
Phil
 
The most common solution to this issue is a TPS adjustment. It can be a few other things but check your TPS first.

Is this something I could try myself, having never done it before? I wasn't aware it was adjustable.

Thanks,
Phil
 
Yes you can do it no problem with minimal technical skills...
Check FC3S.org I believe.. or rx7club.com for technical tips on how to adjust it. (At work cant find it atm)
Do a search on TPS adjustment on the RX7club site.. and you should be done in like 5 minutes with the adjustment..

This could, of course, just be a vacuum leak. Spray carb clean around all those vacuum lines and see if the engine speeds up.

cuz ya never know
 
Carb cleaner can eat up plastic pretty well. Might not want to spray it all over your intake.
