My new tractor seems to have a fast idle or so it seems to me, any idea what the RPM at idle should run at? I can drive away at a good pace without using the throttle. But then, this is one of those fast tractors that can fly at about 7mph at full throttle. I'm thinking it runs at a faster idle for cooling, being 22hp.

Most idle RPM's are between 1600-1800. Some drop down as low as 1000.

16-1800 sounds high to me, maybe things here are ok. I'll see if I can find a tachometer and reduce some of my guessing, Thanks.
