Low idle problem on a ej6 help!
hi, im kinda worried out my car, its starting to act funny, it has about 200k and sometimes when im at a stop light, my idle speed would sometimes drop very very low, sometimes to 0, or 100-200. any idea? i heard low idle is cause by low compression. last time i did a compression check it came out to be 170-165.

So it almost stalls?
Unsteady idle can be caused by IAC, vacuum leak. Other then the idle does the engine run fine under the load?

Re: (sky9)
BUMP for this thread.... im haven the same problem, same model car xcept i have 150k miles...
at idle its very low almost to the point of stalling... under load (driving) it seems fine though. Just yesterday my check engine light went on from im Guessing a misfire when it went really low idle...
any thoughts? vacuum problem?
TIA much appreciated, i plan on doing the ECU pin trick to find the codes out tonight and ill report back
