The idle solenoid isn't strong enough to rotate the throttle shaft when the key is turned on, energizing the solenoid. Once the throttle shaft is rotated (with the solenoid energized), the solenoid will keep the throttle shaft rotated slightly until the key is turned off. This is to help control dieseling.

I understand all that, but the one on THIS car is STRONG !!!! It WILL push open the throttle at idle, so I have adjusted accordingly. What is interesting is that the car idles at different RPMs dependent on engine temp. Weird.
