Default Rough idle...

It's not a big deal but whenever my car is just sitting there iddling it gets a little rough sometimes... My shift know starts vibratin' hard and I feel it when I'm sittin' there. What could be the problem?

my cooling (radiator?) fan turns on ALL the time...gotta fix that sometimes, but my idle is steady.

here are some causes that i know for wierd idles:

-radiator fluids (bubbles)
-sensors (map, etc.)
-wrong ecu
-bad ground

then again, i'm just throwing out possibilities....hope it'll help.

Quick99Si....wow your first post...that's awesome. Welcome!!

It does it whether or not I have the A/C on...

I'll check the radiator fluids but how do I check the sensors and the ECU? Or the bad ground?
