So heres my problem
My car starts up right? When its in park it idles at about 1k-1.1k Neutral it idles a little lower. Everything else it goes way down to about 500, shakes like theres an earthquake in my car, and sounds like its gonna die, but never does...yet. Anyone know how to fix this problem? |

I cleaned the ACV, changed the plugs, didnt work...maybe the injectors are screwed but unlikely. I'll give the IAC a go. --------------------  98% completion --- aaRon |
