Re: Hunting idle on Verde

[Alan Lambert <lechefgerard@domain.elided>]

Interesting--have had the same problem with the GTV-6 after I changed
the idle air inlet to make the idle faster. there is obviously some
kind of reversing feedback going on here--if anyone knows the answer,
let's hear it. (two good mechanics I know didn't know the cause--they
would fiddle with idle adjustments et al and get it to stop sometimes,
but without any real knowledge of the original cause.)
