Re: pontiac 1983 crossfire help

probably there is a fault with the charcoal canister control valve or low fuel pressure causing the low idle RPM situation.The base throttle position can be adjusted once the braze spot has been ground away on the throttle stop screw,but that is rarely needed to be adjusted-almost always some other fault is the cause of the low RPM. If you are French,there are other French guys on here
