ok so i have a 97 GS-T and for about 3years, i've had my check engine light on for a idling problem, but i never saw anything wrong. now when the car is cold and i start it, it'll idle fine, but when i put the car in reverse it stalls on me. i have to restart it and drop it to drive and then reverse and it'll be fine. sometimes it just stalls right away and sometimes you can feel the car trying to fight the stall and then it stalls LOL. anyway what would be making this problem, would it be my ics???
 
What specifically does the CEL call out?
It could be the ISC, TPS, or BISS needs adjustment...
 
i'm pretty sure it just says idle control problem. i never felt anything wrong with it till this stalling problem started happening
