be careful with adjusting that screw. the SMallest adjustment can make the biggest effect. Make sure some if your hoses aren't bent or being constricted, it will cause idle variations of low and high idle, even sparatic variations in your idle. I dont think the screw is you true fix. I was having a rough idle, took mine in the shop, I had clogged injectors, and the adjusted my screw back to stock.<P><BR>------------------<BR>Barry Clark<BR><I><B>Moderator</B></I><BR>1995 Mazda Mx-3 RS<BR>Chaste White<BR><A HREF="http://www.barrykclark.com" TARGET=_blank>barrykclark.com</A> <BR> barrykclark@hotmail.com <p>[This message has been edited by Custommx3 (edited July 12, 2001).]
