its been doind it since i got it boosted, but it did it once or twice before i got it boosted. after a good thrashig tho.

Ive been researchin. IACV seems like it needs a cleaning according to forums.
any experienced the same problem?

another way of me ridding of the bouncing idle wen stationary i can pull the handbrake and then put it ion first and let go off d clutch slooooly which makes d idle drop a bit and after a few seconds i put it back in neutral and let go off d clutch and it idles properly. but if i tap the acceleratro it starts idling spaztix again ...

my problem was thermostat.
dont have any idea how it affects ur idle but yeah.

my car use to sit at lights idling
if i sat in garage flick engine on it would be fine
as soon as i touch accelerator to drive off
next sit of lights
