whats it idle at normally?

joseph296 · October 19th, 2009, 12:19 AM

proabbly around 8 900 noticably closer to the 1000

93hatch · October 19th, 2009, 12:21 AM

have you tried pulling off the iac and cleaning it with carb cleaner?

v606er · October 19th, 2009, 12:21 AM

This happened in my jeep. It could be that the )2 sensors are reading that it's running rich, so it cuts back the fuel supply, which cuts the car off.

Could be something else though...

joseph296 · October 19th, 2009, 12:23 AM

iac? sorry im new here

93hatch · October 19th, 2009, 12:27 AM

How does your fuel pump sound? Does it sound like it's RPM's drop also, I had one dropping pressure after a run on the highway and the ground was corroded causing the pump to slow down enough.

joseph296 · October 19th, 2009, 07:14 PM

Fuel pump sounds good. The car idles fine somtimes just after gettin on it and comin to a light it usually happens maybe a vaccum issue?
