    Hey whats people,let me get to the point.
    I have 91 legend that i love,but it is to much to maintain(over $4.000 put into it since last oct,2003.
    Anyways i've noticed when it gets hot outside,the RPM's rev'up at about 2k.Wher it's sopposed to be at,or under 1k.
    I see it as not being normal,but working for some import dealers since i was 17(now 32) i can't figure it out.The guys at work pretty much dont care(cause they dont have the time)and because they have to make money on other things.....
    Soooooo,Can someone please help me out here,i'm not getting happy with this car as it is...thanks.......

      When the car is hot and doing it's high idling, go and manually close the throttle plate with your hands and see if it idles down at all. If it does, then you need to adjust your throttle cable. A lot of times when it gets really hot under there the throttle cable will pull the throttle open a bit causing high idle.
