Geo Metro Fast Idle Problem?
 

anyone had a fast Idle problem with there metro 1.0 engine? If so How did you fix it. :(

is this intermittent? just happen during the cold months?
i bought a 26yr old used accord, it was idled too high from the day i bought it last august.
it was consistently too high, even for the warm months.
i found two screws under the carb that allowed me to drop it to about 500rpms.
you may have a fuel injected engine, but if your idle is consistently too high, even after it has warmed-up, i;d try to find the idle screw or a chilton book to point it out.

i have noticed that on rare occasions my car may idle too high. i place my foot under the accelerator and lift the pedal to lower the rpms. this is very rare that i experience this, but i assume it's linkage.

i hope this helps.

What year Metro? You shouldn't have to screw around with the idle adjustment unless somebody else has screwed around with it first. Check for vacuum leaks.

If it's a 1989-1995 engine then read this thread................
