agree  Murat Yildirim (X): to turn loose(ly) uygun / idle pek uymuyor. Idle: not working or being used / without any particular purpose / lazy and not willing to work /An idle moment or period of time is one in which there is no work or activity / without work; unemployed

  -> aslında to turn loose gevşetmeye daha yakın yani tam doğru olanı to turn idle
agree  Özden Arıkan: tam tersine, turn loose'un hiç alakası yok, *turn idle* doğrusu (turn at idle), mesela www.dictionary.com adresine bakılabilir

agree  Faruk Atabeyli: turn loose vidanın gevşediği durumlar için kullanılır, yalama olduğu durumlar için değil. idle yalnız aylak/işsiz güçsüz/boş/rölanti değil aynı zamanda beyhude anlamına da gelir. turn at idle
