    fast idle problem

    My car idles fine at a cold start but after Im driving and a depress the clutch, the car will idle at about 1300 rpm and then go down after 2 or 3 seconds then it will idle normally. It almost always does this after Im driving and then I go to depress the clutch. It used to go right down to about 800 rpm as soon as I put the clutch in. Does anyone have an idea as to what may contribute to this lag? Thanks in advance!

    My life is a
    Ben Stiller movie.

    Could be a few things:
    • vacuum leak causing the fuel system to dump more fuel in (have you removed anything and not replaced a gasket after reinstalling?). This happened to me when i removed/reinstalled my intake after powder coating.

    • your throttle cable may have collapsed-do you notice sluggish throttle response at all? Simple fix, you just have to know what to look for. Go to your cable-follow it from the TB along the cable and you'll find a little gizmo. make sure the clasp on the front of that gizmo is clicked all the way down on both sides of the clasp.
