OK want your Precedent to have more power and run better with smoother response then here goes.This is for the sea level cars from the factory,not high altitude.

You need to remove the carb and the air box(complete with choke assy.
This requires the removal of the floormat and the lower cover that has the choke button on it.You need to remove the 4 screws that hold the rear body down to lift the rear body up about an inch.You can now take the screws out that hold the air box in.Remove the reducer at the front of the air box and throw it away.Make sure the butteryfly valve in the air box moves all the way open.If not the remove the top swivel and cut off the excess until it can move to 90 degrees without stopping the butterfly valve.You can install the airbox when done.The button for the choke has a rod on it that will have to be bent so it will allow the valve to stay all the way open.
The carb needs to come apart and the main jet gets drilled out with a number 62 orifice drillbit.The idle jet needs to be from an Fe290 carb.Cut the boss on the carb so that the idle mixture screw can go all the way in or out.Set it at 1 1/2 turns out from being bottomed out.Also make sure the passage from the front of the carb to where the idle jet goes has the same size passage as the holes in the jet.This allows the proper amount of air to go through.Instal everything on car.DON'T hook up the throttle cable.Turn the idle speed up so car can idle with you foot to the floor.Run it for about 2 minutes to warm it up and then adjust the idle mixture in or out until the motor runs nice.If you have a tach set it at 750rpm.When done hook the throttle cable up and set your max rpm.This will give you a lot more power and better control on the motor.I brought this up to the engineers at club car when this was an issue.Their fix was going from a BPR5ES to a BPR2ES.

THis does work and was done at a golf course for their entire fleet.Stopped the issue and made the cars run real nice.
Let me know if you do this how you like it.
