Idle problem

suprabahamut · 01-12-2009, 02:15 AM

After the engine has warmed up for about 10 minutes it starts to act up. At red lights or when I stop it idles down to 500 rpms and some times turns off, it lugs really bad most of the time. It runs fine after I take off and driving, it is only when it idles. I have to usually keep the gas pedal down to keep it from turning off. Someone please help any advice is good!

Check the plug on the ISC, if its loose then it could cause that, but for reference check page 4 of this page http://www.swaqvalley.com/TSRM/03_EM.pdf, it will direct you to the info for checking for not idling correctly. Hopefully it will help you, good luck.

Thanks for the information. I have 1 more question can you use carburetor cleaner spray on the valve? I usually clean EGR's with it, but I wanted to ask if it would damage anything.
