damn thing wont idle

99modular · November 22nd, 2006, 03:32 PM

I had a problem where my 99gt wouldnt idle and die. I had to hold the gas until it warmed up a bit, then all was ok. I cleaned the IAC and the problem wnt away all together. Now i am haveing the same problem, but this time even holding the gas for lets says 20min, or until the car is almost up to temp it still wants to die. Pulled the iac and cleaned it again, but no luck. Any ideas would sure help. I havent had any luck finding a vaccum leak, but still looking.
