Apparently there's also an idle_timeout but I'm not sure what the difference is or if it really works:

mech.methods.grep /timeout=/
#=> [:idle_timeout=, :open_timeout=, :read_timeout=]

I'm guessing that you're trying to use the setTimeout method from JavaScript, but unfortunately, Mechanize doesn't understand JavaScript and can't really work with it (see this question for more info). The methods that you're using are separate from the setTimeout functionality in JavaScript. You might have success with something like this using Watir or something similar:

# this assumes that `browser' is a `Watir::Browser' object
browser.execute_script("window.setTimeout(my_code, 2000)")
