have you bled the coolant system? usually thats causes somewhat... and also you got the FITV to blame, TPS sensor, vacuum leak... a lot of stuff to troubleshoot...

When my car warms up the RPM will drop to like 300 or lower(I think sometimes that my car is going to die). I don't know my problem either. do u have to take the radiator cap off and run the car for awhile to make sure the system is bleed fully?
