Default Thanks

Thanks, I found it and changed it my confusion was from it being labeled as a knockdown relay? Had a 6000rpm printed on it, and the replacement had an extra pin. But it works....
Another question... S it possible to put the idle relay in backwards? Seems to be idling higher....about 1200 rpm....
