There is a list of things you can check for...1. I would go and have the comp read even if there isn't a "check engine" light on. It still may be throwing a code. I would do this first.2. Check the plugs and wires and coils. 3. Almost sounds like the timing could be off so I would put a timing light on it. 4. Check your EGR valve, it could be all gummed up with carbon... that could mess with your idle. 5. That damn IAC contoller has been the source of some head aches with my car, I would check that too. It could be totally gone and won't throw a code. "I Hate those things...lol" 6. And the obvious, like oil, fuel and vacume leaks. I dunno man that's where you could start, you could do a compression test when your messing around with the plugs and see what's going on with that. But that is all I could think of. Honestly if you had all your tools lined up that all would take you an hour. I hope you figure it out. :thumb:</blockquote>
