OK maybe someone here knows about wtf is going on in my car.. the egnine idles normal.. then it starts jumping from 1000 to 2300 rpms...
and wont stop doing this unless your actually moving (only does it in park and nuetral) when your driving it runs great power and everything..
but when I turn off the car it smells like gas... flooded in the engine.. like if it was carbed.. maybe someone could give me an idea of whats going on A mechanic told me I need a new timing belt... tune up.. and a o2 sensor.. but I watched him mess with the idle air control valve.. *lost* any tips would be great thanks!

 

eh.. sorry it's a 93 gxe sohc.. 120,000 miles automatic.. stock.. everything... I believe (bought this car from its first owner)

 

You ARE due for a timing belt based on mileage.
as well as everything else he mentioned.
But chances are those are not related to your erratic idling.
Startt with the maintenance items then see if the problem either changes or goes away.

 

:\ hmmm I was looking at the hose that goes to the iacv and it has electrical tape wraped on it and no clamp... maybe that could be the problem

 

:| no one else got any.. thoughts to share on my problem... doing the t-belt didnt change anything.. mechnic said the ignition wires, plugs.. are still fine..

 

i had the same pro and puthe car on computer and it working fine it's the meter that's wrong change it you will be fine

 

it's not the meter though.. I can actually see/hear the engine reving up and down.. unless the a/c is on and working.. or the car is in drive/reverse

 

I replaced the vac line that goes to the iacv... seems to have cured some of the problem.. anyone know how to adjust that thing.. seems like it's sucking to much air... cause when I squeeze the line it idles normal

 

can an engine have too much air? You should try to adjust your idling throttle.

 

I dont know how...

 

:\ guess nobody here does either.. heh.. time to take a trip to the dealer then

 

the adjust screw.. has something like an o-ring on it.. anyone know where I can get this I cant find it in any auto parts.. it's leaking so.. Im guessing thats why I cant adjust it
