ok one night i was cruising around and i blew my fuse to my amp cause it is kinda small and anyways i open hood to change it and i take of my positive battery cable and change fuse then hook cable back and got in car and started it and i stared kinda ruff and it usually idles at 1k and it was idleing at 700 and trying to die out. and my stereo which is stock didn't make me puit my code in so i stoped at a friend house and diconect battery for like 5 mins to try and see if it will reset or something but i never still idled wierd so i got home and changed my spark plug wires and lefty it of for like 30 minms and it idled odd then i turned it off then on and it ran just fine. what could have caused that? it still hasent made me puit code for stereo it always did before that night? thanks and sorry it is so long.

Some one correct me if im wrong but our fuel pump has a wire comming directly from the battery cable (positive) and if thats not on tight it will cause that bad idle because its not getting its full power needed. this happend to me. also when dissconnecting your batter dissconnect the negative side :thumb:
