Re: no more idle RPM

I had that problem many times (635,735,318,535,540) and it always been a
"sticky" idle regulating valve.
First check connection and if everything is fine try to clean it with brake
cleaner spray.
On your engine it's not an easy part to reach, it is underneath the intake
manifold.

good luck
