Is there a adjustment for the idle on this vehicle, or do I have MAF that needs to be cleaned or replaced?? The idle is a 1250, but other than that it runs really well.

Thanks

there is a screw on the throttle body by the accelerator assembly that you can simply turn it to decrease the idle

remember the idle should be higher on initial start up for a few seconds till the car warms.
