ok i have a 97 GS with a 99 GS engine swapped in cause the old engine was blown.. i didnt do the swap myself.. i paid some1 to do it... when it idles in neutral.. it usually stays at 1000rpms... goes up to like 1300rpms then goes back down to 1000.. it does this constantly n sometimes goes below 1000rpms.. any ideas to what could be causing this? and is it normal for the car to be staying at 1000rpms in neutral?

It can throw code P1294, but mine never did when my idle was at 1200.

find out what your code is first and then I'd start checking for vacuum leaks

I had the same problem. I removed the throttle body, (easy) cleaned the whole thing with carb cleaner. Removed the IAC, ICM and found the plunger inside it was a little sticky. Cleaned it with carb cleaner and no more idle surge or high idle.
