    Idle problems with ho upper

    hey mangs scott just installed my ho upper yesterday he fixed the idle problems last night before I drove home. this moring I drove to the doctors and the car is idleing high. when scott fixed the idle problems before I left. He took the plate that goes under the iac off and he noticed that the my ho upper had a tiny hole
    on the throttle plate so he to a tiny screw and some locktite and screwed it in.
    also we had to use a different tps because my old one would not fit the ho throttle body would that effect the idle or the iac.
    have any of you mang had problems with your ho upper upgrade with idleing .
    thank mangs for any input

            Have you reset the ecu? That tps voltage stuff really isn't that big of a deal, the ECU learns around it. MIght be a vacuum leak or the actual idle screw needs adjustment.
