    Idle rpm flucates after startup

    Would anyone know why my 3.8L 02 camaro's rpm would flucate up and down after starting the engine?

    After about 10seconds it smooths out to normal with no other flucations until the next startup.

    Nothing major, maybe only 200rpm's or so.

    Thanks for any advice.

      Do you have an aftermarket air intake? Maybe a small vaccum leak of some kind...could be a lot of things.

          I do have an aftermarket airbox, could it be that sensor that attaches to the airbox? It never did fit very well.
