What's your idle?

What's your idling rpm? I think mine used to be closer to 500 but I'm not sure. It's more like 650 or something now according to the needle

That looks about what mine idles at.

I keep an eye on it with my Scangauge. After the cold start, it hovers at just around 650, but every now and then it sits at 666rpm.

That's about what mine is, I don't have a cold start.

That's about right.
Now if you said 667rpm, well that's some rod bearing stuff right there

Mine idles around 750 with the AC on, closer to 500 with the ac off

Mines around 550-600 with no AC on. Mine used to be 750-800 when my battery was on its way out.
