Poll on idle activation switch.

If you have access to an ae or another type of scan tool able to pick up accelerator pedal position, @ what percent does the idle validation switch turn off? Mine is at 20% which I think is way high compared to the others I've seen. Let me know what yours is.

Wow, that is even higher than I thought I would see. What I was hoping to find was that mine was higher than anyone's and I could figure out how to lower it. Most I have seen are around 16%-18%. It's a big difference on how far the throttle has to be pressed to maintain x speed.
