Re: Idle Problem
Thanks for the advice!
I hade the spark plugs replaced about 1,000 miles ago so that can't be
it. Where are the IAC and TCS located? I would like to take a look at
them and try cleaning them if they aren't hard to get to.

Was that before or after the problem started? If before, it might just be
