Re: after O2 sensor changed... now idles wierd...
i suppose you have a KLZE , i think 1300 is to much, the same for 900 rpm. The k8 engine have normal idle at 670 rpm +30 or -30, i have a KFZE , idles around 600 or 700 .

Re: after O2 sensor changed... now idles wierd...
I wish my idle was that low :/
whenever i try tolower it the car just stals because its to rich. :/ i think its good that it idles that low for you.
as for me i let it like that since my o2 sensors wont matter in a few weeks when i install my megasquirt.

Re: after O2 sensor changed... now idles wierd...
If the sensor was dead i'm not surprised the idle changed when you put a new one in. Plus, why does it matter? Your idle is a lot closer to normal, that's a good thing. Stop questioning it.
