Greetings all!
I have a '08 B7800. I feel that the idle speed is higher than necessary on it.
Two Questions:
1- Can I adjust it down a touch and how to do that?
2 - Can that do any harm to the motor?

Sure u can turn it down.. Find the inj. pump.. it'll be that thing that has the steel lines going from it, up to the injectors in the head..
Look to the right of the pump or down below it..
work the throttle & you'll see the linkage move.. the levers hit stop screws.. that's where u adjust the hi & low idles.. turn the screw counter clockwise/back it out, to lower the RPM's/speed..
