After disconnecting the battery for about 30 minutes, I unplugged the idle bypass valve on the throttle body and started the car. I then adjusted the engine rpm to 850rpm via the idle stop screw.

At this point then engine idles at 850rpm then goes up to around 1500rpm... then drops back to 850rpm... then up again to 1500... then back down to 850...

Do i let this continue until it stablizes? Or will it stablize when i plug the idle bypass valve back in?
