Wierd Idle Issue


In the past couple of day when I drive for any length of time my idlesticks around 1300-1600 RPM. I just replaced the IAC a few months ago,but could this be a TPS issue. Thanks

i had idle problems for a while, too. i cleaned the IAC and it worked fine for about 2 weeks. then the idle was shitty again. i checked for codes and found out that the TPS was bad, so $50 later, the problem was solved...

Nah, I never sold it for obvious reasons.....00 what part of va beach are you in, i am in the sandbox too, I need to meet up with some fellow stangers to check iout the scene around here. And thanks for the help, I shall keep my eye on the TPS, and it only idles sometimes high, also when i put it to the floor it doesn't do it afterwards.
