1988 560SL
560Sl Idle Check List/Vin# Identification

Attached are the checks I did on my 1988 560Sl idling fast. The engine was warmed up and checked for vacuum leaks of which there were none. All checks were done individually. Please give me your assessment of these tests.

The vin number is WDBBA48D2JA089133 is this a federal or California vehicle?
