#80055, "Really weird idle problem"




          

I did a search, but none of them really described my problem. If I am sitting at an idle it jumps up and down alot. If you ever heard a mustang with a big cam in it, that is what my car sounds like. It just started this today. If I tap the gas to bring it up a little bit I can hear a big sucking sound that goes away real quick. Any help would be appreciated.

What ^^^ said. Sounds like a vacuum leak.

It may be a vac line, but it could also very likelly be the PCV valve...
The PCV valves on our cars suck, and can cause lots of weird idle problems emoji
