h22a idle

every once in a while my car idles weird. It's revving up and down but not erratically. Its very mild and could be stopped when you step on the gas lightly.

It just started doing it about a when temp got below 50 degress F ---

Does anyone have a solution for this problem? ANy common fix you might know?

Thanks

Reset the EACV and this should take care of it. Get a helms manual to help you through the steps. It is easy however.

I hear that. I keep thinking it's a small vacuum leak or not enough coolant problem, but could be wrong

no just open the bleeder screw on top of the themastat housing. (where the coolent goes in from the rad.) just crack it open just enough coolant will leak out. and should take care of any air in the system. have your car running when you do this.
