First real drive in my m35a2

[spentshell]

Took the deuce for about a 10 mile ride I was getting salutes and thumbs up all over the place, got a couple of weird looks to especially from my mother in law.My first real cruise,I do have a question about the idle , when I let off the clutch the engine would rev to about 1100 rpm and back down to about a 1000. Could this be the idle adjustment, the engine is a turbo. Any input would be appreciated thanks

the idle should be about 800. try adjusting the idle down some.

The linkage from your pedal to the IP is a complicated piece of dung. Be sure it is free and clear and not bent, and that the spring loaded part is loose and straight before you start adjusting things...also check to see that the shafts into the IP are not binding.
