95 306 DTurbo Idle speed?

Guy's

Does anyone know what the idle speed should be on a 95 306 Dturbo? should it
be any different if the engine is hot or cold?

Currently what ever the temperature it sits slightly over 1K rpm (seems to
run too fast to me?)

Cheers

My 405TD with the 1.9 engine is supposed to idle at 750 when warm and
850 when cold. It doesn't though. The idle speed is
set by a lever on the back of the pump. There will be a flexible cable
running from the thermostat housing to the back of your fuel pump. If
this has seized then the idle speed won't change.

This cable often becomes faulty when the end remote from the pump i.e. at
the diaphragm end has the outer pulled into the cable adjuster and therefore
the idling adjustment is nolonger operated when the engine vacuum changes.
Worth a check first there. There is not very much movement on this cable
when it is adjusted correctly. Check the movement by looking at the cable
travel behind the pump where the two idle adjustment screws are located.

I believe it should be 800 or 850rpm when warm and nearer 1000rpm when
cold. That's what mine does and I'm sure I've read is somewhere but
can't find it right this moment.

Ok. Found it in my Haynes manual:

Idle speed:
Models not fitted with air conditioning, 750 to 800 rpm
Models with air conditioning, 800 to 850 rpm

Fast Idle speed (all models): 950+/-50 rpm

Excellent!! Cheers Peeps...

Simple job to change the speed / check the thermostat setting ?

Hi
I have a 97 d-turbo on mine when cold sits just over 1rpm but when warm
drops to under 1rpm.
