i have a quick question. for the last few weeks my car has been idleing weird. when i start the car the tach goes up to 2 for a while then idles between 1600 and 1700. and if im driving and i put it in neutral it idles the same or sometimes higher. whats up with that!? it def didn't do that when i first got it. can't b good tho.

MIne's doing the same. Help anyone?




I was happy when I heard my car ran 10s. Then I found out that was 0-60.

I would take a look at youre IAC sensor, either it is wornout, Or you got alot of carbon built up on that part. If that doesnt correct it, I would check youre vaccum lines.

Also check the throttle cable and throttle body for free movement. It may be as easy as some wd-40.
