Hi
I have a Lotus Europa with a Toyota twin cam 1600 cc with a turbocharger. I am using MS II 3.0 and ver 2.867 MT. The car starts and goes in to warm up and fast idle. The car will not idle down unless you shut down the car and restart. I think Lance had the answer to this problem but it has been some time since I have played with the car and I can not find the answer. Also, there is a small "buck"( for lack of a better description) just as you step on the throttle during cruise. Other than that, it is a pretty stable installation Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Idle control
From cruise to accelerate there is commonly a lean spot before the power comes on. Probably a little richening in the " accel enrichment" is needed. Accel enrichment is kind of like an accelerator pump in a carb.Also, there is a small "buck"( for lack of a better description) just as you step on the throttle during cruise.
I'm a gearhead but weak on software.

Re: Idle control
Scott,
Have you tried to jumper the two resistors as mentioned in the manual under Idle Control? I have the same problem and am going to try that modification.
