    if you ask me the 1000 rpm idle is good, easier to get a good launch. my mustang idled lower and getting a strong, hi rpm launch was a pain

      <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by SuperRat:
      My idle would drop to 0 and jump to 1500 and down to 500 and so on. The solution was to remove the IAC from the TB (throttle body) and clean it really good with carb cleaner. Push the pintle in so you get the clearance needed when reinstalling. This solved my problem.

      Since this is part of the fuel system you might suspect other components are dirty. It's a good idea to clean the TB itself by spraying carb cleaner into it. I noticed improvement from this as well.

      I also decided to pour in a bottle of Slick 50 fuel system cleaner to see if it would help.

      Check inside the airduct for cleanliness, if it is dirty, you may want to clean this too.
      <hr></blockquote> I did the same thing because my car would act like yours and when I came to a redlight it just stop running but I could start it again when I clean the iac I could not move the pintle in/out is it broken?? and the car runs a little better /Have a nice day /Håkan

          just disconnect your negative side of the battery for 10 minutes.
          it works.

              Way to search my friend! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] :D

              This thread should be framed or something.

              And, yeah...just disconnecting the battery will reset the computer.

                  If you guy's want to reset the PCM, its easier to remove the PCM IGN, and PCM BATT fuses, and you do not lose your radio stations, or have to deal with getting your cables on right.
