HI GUYS,

I JUST PURCHASED A 1987 RX7 TURBO II WITH GET THIS - 16,000 ORIGINAL MILES AND LIKE BRAND NEW INSIDE AND OUT. ONE OWNER WHO HARDLY DROVE IT. I WAS AFTER THIS CAR FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS UNTIL THE OWNER FINALLY SOLD IT TO ME.

I HAVE ONE PROBLEM:

When the car is cold it idles around 2000 rpm and once it warms up it goes down to about 1400-1500. The car idles fine, as far as that goes, it's not erratic or anything its just a little high.

IS THIS A COMMON PROBLEM? IF SO - WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS BESIDED THE VERY EXPENSIVE IDLE CONTROL MOTOR.

ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED,

ERIK
