48672, Engine can't sustaine Idle.
Posted by Eclipse97, Apr-08-03 02:01 PM
everytime I start my car it dies... everytime I let go of the gas padel the car dies... seems like it doesn't sustain an Idle speed.


I'm thinking that my Idle control sensor is going.. or gone, but anywho.. what do you guyz think and what would you recommend I should check?

Can I remove the sensor and clean it or something?

Just looking for some input and help.

thanks

its probably the IAC motor. if fires up and dies then check the plugs and such.
