Was just sitting at a stop light... a tad delirious with a cold... and thought my KK felt a little low on the idle. Odo showed right around 500-600 rpm. The engine is bone stock aside from upgraded/different spark plugs. It was/is about 15*F here in Anchorage.

Where do you generally idle at rest?'

Thanks!

I sit just about the same. When in park or neutral it's a tad higher.

Only ones with "fast idle" switches otherwise they idle at about the same rpm's as gas engines.
