SOURCE: I have a 2001 softail duece, fuel injected that
If it's fuel injected, the dealer will have to set the idle speed for you unless you have another type of computer on the bike.
SOURCE: high Idle spee on fuel injected Evo
You must take it to a shop to have the idle speed set. It's set electronically.
Following list of possible faults should help:-
Coolant sensor - engine is signaled as being 'cold' all the
time, not just at start up, causing ECU to set longer injection cycle
? Low coolant level can prevent sensor being able to detect coolant
temperature
? Faulty 'open' thermostat allows coolant to circulate without regulation
and perhaps prevents the engine from achieving normal running temperatures.
FPR - broken diaphragm allows fuel to enter
the vacuum line and then into the inlet manifold. Additional source of fuel
makes the fuel air mix richer causing a faster and lumpy idle.
Vacuum leak - 'high oxygen' signal
from O2 sensor causes ECU to set longer injection cycle.
O2 sensor - 'high oxygen' sensor error
causes ECU to set longer fuel injection cycle
MAF - 'over reads' in error the amount of air
entering causing ECU to set longer fuel injection cycle
IAT - 'under reads' in error the temperature of incoming air causing ECU to set longer fuel injection cycle
