ive posted about this before. My car has high idle, roughly 2000 rpm. read about all this in the forums and came to the comclusion it was my IAC. got my IAC replaced the othyer day, no diffrence.
found the vaccum diagram for the 5s and checked mine out. everyhting was good. except for the PS assist valve. the "nipple" type things were semi broken on that. now im ok with engines, not a complete expert but i can do pretty good. i dont know what else could make my idle as high as it is, could timing, belt tension, advanced or retarded ignition timing have any effect on this? i just want my car to opperate as it should. im only a teen so i dont have too much money to play with, but any experience & help towards my problem is greatly appriciated. |

throttle cable is just fine. i took off the IACV and cleaned it, put some form a gasket on it with the actual gasket. checked all my vac lines for leaks and they were good. i have the distributer where my manual says to put it. and for the TPS, im not sure of where it should be, but i did move it as far as it could to the driver side (clip pointing down ) and my idles fine. i reset the ecu and check engine went away and hasnt come back on since.
