I have two problems, 1 not so important as the other. The first important one is i have a weird 1dle problem, the wierd thing is that it only does when i put it in neutral after slowing down. My RPM's will raise up to about 1,500 then drop down to 1,000. When i start my car it revs up to 2,000 or more for like 2 - 3 sec. then drop down. what i dont understand is that it just started happening, it used to be fine and idle at 750 - 800 rpm, now it wont even touch 9. Does anyone know if theres anything that can be done to my throttle body to fis it, i doubt its my tps?? My friend had a similar problem with his honda and all we did was tighten this bullet looking thing under his TB.
My second prolbem is that my headlights are crazy dim for sumreason, when i turn my head lights on my highbeam in dash light comes on, i checked my fuses and there fine, the only thing i can think of is that one of my gorund wires isnt on right or isnt on at all, does anyone have any idea witch one it might be???? By the way the high beams work fine, i can tell becasue when i drive behind someone with them on i get the finger. :thumb:
 
I know I am breaking the rules here but use the search, idle problems are probably the most discussed problem on these boards. There is also some info on www.vfaq.com
