Re: [Chrysler300] 300 G Fast Idle



I use a Unisyn Model A to balance the two AFBs on my 300H. I bought a plastic oil filler funnel  which had the same diameter as the top of the carbs. I cut the other end off to the center of the diameter of the rubber on the Unisyn. It works well for getting the carbs balanced at idle speed. I do not know if it matters a whole lot on this carb setup because of the common manifold , but at least it satisfies the requirement that the air flow be equal.

Ram warm up is dicey as one side always pulls off before the other, but sounds like your high idle stop screws are set to high.( simple first thing)  Be sure heat riser valves are working. Remember there is no conventional throttle stop / regular idle, only the air valves ----and throttles must close 100% when off high idle. There are instructions in 60 300F manual supplement —have to have that to do this. Many factors play into it. I’ll let someone else fill a phone book about ram idle. I believe there is  no high idle rpm spec . Somewhat dependent on local climate whether you even need a lot of that working , but heat riser valves must be working no matter what else.

I don't have specs for your fast idle speed, but without regard to the actual setting it should come back to a slightly fast idle immediately after the engine starts (of course also after you press the gas pedal a little to unload the fast idle cam).  If your pull-off is a vacuum diaphragm you should suspect that it has ruptured.  If it is a piston in the choke's hot air/bi-metal spring chamber you should suspect the vacuum passage to be clogged.
> You should not have to wait for operating temperature before you can have a reasonable idle speed.  When working properly there is a step-wise decline in idle speed as the engine warms up, but you should never have to deal with such a high idle speed for an extended time------good way to break a band in the transmission.
