Ok, so Im trying to figure out what is wrong with my car. It was running fine until I installed my FP manifold. After installing the manifold my idle was a little low but drove fine. Yesterday on my way home from the beach when I shifted into neutral at a light the idle dropped to like 200 then and sat there and it almost stalled. I touched the gas to get the idle up and kept going, it drove fine just when in neutral it was acting weird. I checked my timing marks and they are fine, looked for any lose clamps and didn't find any. However I did notice that I'm missing 2 manifold studs. I know I had one snapped off in the head but now I have 2. Its the top row of bolts it goes xOxO the o's represent studs and x are missing ones. I already ordered the helicoil kit and ss studs a couple days ago when I notice the first one being snapped off. Could this be the only reason for the bad idle??? I did do some reading and it seemed like a sensor issue maybe. I have a log for anyone that can read it (im still learning) maybe it might tell me something. Thanks I'd really appreciate it!!!
