At idle, RPMs drop down to around 500 then come back to normal. It is a really quick and inconsistent drop. It keeps dropping until I hit ~30 mph, then the drop disappears. I have replaced the plugs and cleaned the AIC. Not too sure what to start checking on this one, help me out fellas.

U coud try some fuel injector cleaner This post has been edited by 2bcelica: Sep 9, 2009 - 1:25 PM |

Thanks for the response. I tried injector cleaner when the problem started and nothing changed. Ill check out the sensor when I get off work and give an update later tonight.

I had a "similar" problem, i had low rpm sputtering on throttle, and nothing while cruising, turned out to be my wires or my fuel filter i think... try a whole tune up. you said you did plugs, do wires, and the fuel filter, and if the problem persists you can rule those out.

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

i had a similar issue i took to the shop and the mechanic started messing with the distributor he keep turning it clockwise/counterclock wise until it reached the desired rpm. Another thing he also looked at was at the throttle wires. He told me they were loose so he made them more short
