- Tue Sep 07, 2010 4:56 am #212571 It will be your Idle set screw or IACV. Clean the iACV and if that doesnt fix it then reset the idle. Make it slightly higher. Also clean the FITV.

- Fri Sep 10, 2010 7:08 pm #213042 that sounds like the fast idle thermal valve then.

mines is the complete opposite it revs up to bout 1k until its warmed up then drops as low as 200...i haven't touch the idle screw as yet cuz my knock sensor isn't in its still on the other block, im thinking thats wat causing the low idle "i cud be dead wrong" but i dont want to meddle with any thing until thats in...
