Discussion:
IDLING TOO HIGH

The forklift idles too high while in neutral, and takes off too fast when i tap on the throttle to go. How do I adjust (in this case TURN DOWN) the idle speed?

I read something somewhere that said there were two places where it could be adjusted/limited.

how and why did it get set too high in the first place? Check your throttle cable to make sure there are no frayed parts that may be sticking, and make sure you don't have something like a cigarette but stuck under the accelerator pedal.

this is not a repair I would suggest anyone try unless they had considerable experience with Toyota LPG systems. you are better off paying the Toyota tech,
