And that is willing to help? I'm putting on a new throttle body and want to make sure I get the idle set properly. I also don't have a computer right now, so unless there's an ALDL to iPhone connector and an iPhone app, I can't just buy a cable and do it myself.

I'm looking to do it in two weeks or so, so if anyone in the area (or even close, I can drive to Denver or wherever) is willing to help and is free in a couple weeks or anytime thereafter I would appreciate the help. I'd also be happy to show my appreciation with a sixer of your favorite beer/soda/bottled water, or whatever you like to drink.


Thanks!
 
Do a google search for TBI idle set procedure, there's definitely a proper way to tune them. The tuning isn't so much done electronically- you're still turning screws to set it, but there are a few readings you can only see by hooking up to the ALDL port. Without those, from what I've read, you're guessing at best for the tune. I'm sure you can get it pretty close without, but I'd like to take out the guessing part. I've been wanting to get a cable and WinALDL for a while, I think this might finally get me to once I have my computer again.
