Idle speed refers to the engine's rotational speed when it is running without any load, such as when the vehicle is stationary and the accelerator is not pressed. It is a critical parameter for engine performance, as it ensures smooth operation and stability at low speeds. Proper idle speed helps in minimizing emissions and improving fuel efficiency while preventing engine stalling. Each vehicle has a specified idle speed range, which can vary based on engine type and design.

How do you adjust idle on a 1998 harley Davidson sportster?

"Idle" can mean two things: idle speed, and idle mixture. Both of these are on the carburettor. Idle speed is adjusted via a screw that is on the throttle control cam. Turning this screw will change the RPMs of the machine at idle. The idle mixture changes the amount of gas that flows during idling, and can be changed by a screw inside a round recession on the bottom of the carb.

What causes hunting on an x reg focus 1.8 petrol engine?

If you mean hunting at idle, the problem is caused by the idle speed being set too high or the idle switch is not properly adjusted. When the throttle is closed as indicated by the idle switch the fuel is cut off by the fuel cut solenoid until the engine speed drops below a preset speed. If the engine speed is higher than that speed and the idle switch is closed there is no fuel for the engine, thus the engine speed drops. When it drops below the preset speed the fuel is turned on and the engine speed goes back up.
