I really can't help you because I have no idea what car you have, what mods, etc.

PLEASE....put your car in your signature. You have 182 posts and should have done that by now.

Once we have the information about year, trim, and mods it will be much easier to help you.

As far as I can tell, my car idels at around 700-800 rpm, so if that's about what your at im guessing its fine. I have no idea what the other thing was that you were talking about. :eek7:

99.9% of cars idle at roughly 750rpm. There should be a sticker on the back side of you hood that say's "idle 750 (+-50)" meaning as long as your between 700 and 800 your fine. I have my idle @ 1000, if i have it set lower, i get the imfamous DSM (4g63) idle problem.

When you first start it up, depending on the outside temp, it will idle a little higher for a few minutes, maybe around 1,000-1,200 rpm or so, and then should drop down to around 700-800 rpm after it warms up.
