University of Oklahoma. (Redirected from Oklahoma University) The University of Oklahoma (OU) is a coeducational public research university located in Norman, Oklahoma. Founded in 1890, it had existed in Oklahoma Territory near Indian Territory for 17 years before the two became the state of Oklahoma.
Normal idle on MOST cars is 850 RPM at normal operating temperature. If it is idling that high, you may have binding linkage or the choke is not fully opening. If it is BANGING into gear, you could cause other drive train problems. You may also have a RUN ON condition when you turn the key off.
It has now happened twice to me that after adding coolant to the radiator, when I turn the car on the RPM's will bounce up and down and the engine is reving (between 1k and 1.5k RPM's). Normal idle is 750 RPM's. After a while it will eventually idle fine, but usually only after driving it for a bit.
