ok, well i go out to start my car, and its not too cold, but it dosent really matter what temp it is..my car does it anyways. when i start my car i have to give it some gas after it catches and hold it at about 1500-2000RPM and let it get all "warmed up" just so it will idle half way, or else it just shakes and stalls out. when it does get kinda warmed up tho it still idles very low, around 500-700 RPM. driving is fine, no prob there untill i go to stop, then it wants to stall out on me or nearly stall out. me and my friend pulled the lil hose off the very top of the TB...the one that runs back along the firewall and down into somewhere in the passenger side. its the only lil vacume hose up there on the TB. where does this go?? and what does it do? when we pulled it off it did idle higher, but when we went to put the hose back on it would try to stall out, or go back to idling very low. after a while it will run and idle ok, but thats after about 10 minutes. i tried following the hose and think it runs into the lil box there in the lower part of the passenger side engine bay. it runs through a lil peice of metal. it goes to a steel line for a while, and i could take off my sidemarket light and see 2 hoses that go from steel into rubber again. what is this lil box dealy they run into?? for some reason the box it "ticking" and yes im sure its the box cuz i got right up next to it and could hear it. any ideas?? is there some valve in there or something?? i pulled my plugs and they had alot of black on them which means im running rich. is my engine running too rich?? is that why its idling so crappy? for some reason i think it has to do with that lil black box under the bumper on the pass side...or could this be an upstream o2 sensor problem??? i havent gotten any CEL's. please help, this is really frustrating. i took an hour today with the engine idling and still couldent really track down anything. points to whoever helps out, thanks alot! -----------------------------------------
