I would then drive it again and when I stop, I would submerge the intake area with WD40.
Wondering about a bad gasket somewhere that when driving, air going in the intake
sucks it closed, then when stopped, the pressure to keep it closed is not there and it
loses some vacuum........and the idle drops.....
Intake manifold bolts all tight?
I've done that, I've sprayed around all known vacuum lines with carb cleaner and WD40 and nothing, idle doesn't jump at all at operating temperature.
I said the timing because that's the only thing that I haven't checked.
So my throttle cable controls my idling? I thought that my cable should have some slack to it and not suppose to be tight? I do have some slack to it but it's not to the point that I can literally take it off with my hand. I'll adjust and test that out.
