ron2368 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 It is infrequent, mostly after the car is running 1 or 2 minutes. the idle will just drop instantly when the car is brought to a stop, usually the idle recovers and stays fine, rarely it will stall, but will restart afterwards.. I was thinking of doing plugs / wires, it has a new gas filter about a year ago. Just looking for some ideas to approach this. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Perhaps try cleaning any sludge built up in the throttle bore and on the throttle plate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron2368 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 I did that a a couple of months ago along with cleaning the pcv, but I will give it another check, thank you. I usually spray carb cleaner in and use a small rag to wipe the area so I can see how dirty it is, is that ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Try cleaning the idle control valve. Seafoam works pretty good for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
