Hi Guys
I've just finished the 1600 conversion on my nova and its running fine except it idles at 1500 Rpm. is there any way that this can be turned down? i've done a quick search but didn't come up with much.

Cheers

Had a look in Haynes for adjusting the idle speed?

Sticky idle control valve? its the small throttle body. Whip it out and give it a clean with some carb cleaner.

If it does turn out to be a faulty Idle Control Valve, i have 3 spare here lol

I had the same issue with mine, turned out to be the aforementioned.

I removed my broken ICV and it's fine without.
