Okay I have made a few minor adjustments and now my car started to die out while in idle, now I turned the idle screw both ways and my Rpms haven't moved either way, the car isn't dying out anymore but not knowing if my idle is set to high I don't want to risk damaging the motor..

Is there anything else I can do??? The dying problem has stopped and the rpm gauge is about 800 but it always seems to be around that area even if you crank the idle speed screw....

Any advice will be appreciated!
:confused:
 
i would get a voltmeter.and check the isc motor.it takes two minutes and they are known culprits.and while your in there pull the throttle body and clean it,it cant hurt. you can find step by step instructions at vfaq.com for both things
