My SR idles very low & bounces from 500-650-700 most of the time staying btwn 500-650. I was told I had cams from the person i brought my motor from. Therefore i can understand the bouncing, but would that make my car idle as low as 500. I also need to check my timing. Does anyone know timing specs off hand and what i should set it at.
500 is too low. even 650 doesn't seem right.
by installing a pair of higher lift/duration after-market cams, the idle would have to be set higher to eliminate the rough overlap.
Also, when using the rough cams, the idle should bounce with a steady beat... not varying like you described.
As for the timing, you are you needing the ignition timing or you want cam degree timing? set them to stock spec first and see how it runs.
