Be more specific.... What is it doing exactly? Are the RPMs high, low, erratic(sp), normal? Is the sound high pitched low? Give us more info.

well, your car is suppose to idel high when you fist start your car. to get the motor to the specific operating temp. once it reaches it, it will idel lower. thats normal.
