Does anyone out there know how to tweak the idle speed for the 5s-FE? I couldn't finish my emissions test because my idle speed was at 2200 rpm, I am trying to lower the value. Any expertise would be gladly appreciated.

Basics first before you get carried away
 . Sounds very much like there is an air leak somewhere in the system. A leaking vacuum hose etc will allow too much air into the intake side of the throttle body which will result in a high idle. Check all your hoses etc first.Gary --------------------  1994 ST205 Celica GT-FOUR Group A WRC - running in new engine 1993 Rover 220 GTi tarmac rally car (under construction) 3SGE power here we come....
