Idle issue - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So, I took by BBK throttle body off and put my stock one back on. Now the idle runs away to about 3,000 RPM. The only way to get it down is to put her back in first after I come to a stop, and then she idles at 657RPM. It won't even drop when I come off the throttle to shift. Anyone ever come across this issue? What did you do to fix it? Any help would be great. Thanks

I'm guessing hanging idle by your description. Make sure the TB and air intake are secure properly with no air leaks. If thats good, then disconnect battery for 10 min, reconnect and just drive the car for about 100-200 miles and give the ecu a chance to relearn.

Thanks for the reply, that's exactly what it's doing, hanging up.

Yeah this will be the second one they will be replacing. The first one I was getting a check engine light because the throttle blade was to small, and the second one started binding after being on the car for 400 miles. I'm giving up on BBK, lol

When Bo White starts taking orders again, get on the list. Zero regrets with mine! The thing is amazing!
