Re: t p i high idle
Most Tpi throttle body blades create a edge in the bores and can't close all the way. If it is idling high look and see if accelerator linkage on throttle body is touching the idle speed stop screw

Re: t p i high idle
you should look up how to set minimum idle air speed on this site, then verify that the TPS is at the right voltage...
