k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 29,093 Member For: 16y 8m 24d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 22/08/18 12:53 AM Share Posted 22/08/18 12:53 AM all stock 6cyl falcons idle around 6-800rpm depending on temperature of components (obviously a bit higher than this when it's stone cold). You'll notice issues like it chugging and trying to stall, if it's idling too low. If it's running smoothly, there's no cause for concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does idle smooth but just seems like it is a bit lower than it should be. And it moves forward quite slowly in D from a dead stop with no throttle. Just seems a bit different from the other FG's I've driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
