Anybody's check engine light come on after playing with idle cable?
I turned my idle from 550 up to 700-800ish
after driving 5 miles the check engine light came on
Why does the motor not like this?

probably bad TPS voltages. when you pull the cable tight to up the idle, it will also change the voltage that the TPS reads. change your idle rpm with hp or efi live. you will need to hook up some scanning software and close the throttle body back to the proper idle voltage that the computer looks for.

Depending on what you did you could do a tps relearn.
unplug the tps and turn the key to run. Wait a few seconds and turn it off. now plug in the tps and do the same thing. once you crank it it should be recalibrated to that point being zero. handy trick!
