Default 3 odd, most likely unrelated questions.

1: intake whistle. ok, so my intake whistles. it drives me ******* nuts. its only under certain load at a certain rpm. what the heck causes this?

2: throttle sticks. sometimes when i come out of gear, ususally downshifting it seems, my throttle sticks.. i have to step on the gas harder to basically snap it free. funny thing is.. my butterfly is spotless, as is the inside of the throttle body.

3: odd idle problem. if im coasting out of gear, my rpms sit at 1500. the second i stop, they drop to 750ish. right where they should be. what in gods name can cause this? even if im rolling at 1mph, its right around 1500.

so if anyone can help with these... that would rock. tia.

IACV? The whistle problem I actually have myself - I haven't pin pointed it either although I'm pretty used to it. Goodluck

1. Acoustics of your engine, intake manifold, and length and diameter of your intake pipe

2. i was gonna say sticky t-plate, try shooting it with carb cleaner and wd-40 you return spring and ****. i would lube up your throttle cable too, there is this graphite stuff called dri-slide. its the ****!!!

3. You car has different idles, one for stationary and one for moving. apparently your moving idle is at 1500rpm, should be like 1100 or so. is your car chipped, because its a parameter you can easily change
