I looked up some info and have found that our cars should be 500 RPM in Drive, 700 in Park / Neutral & for manuals a little higher. Is this true?
Will if worse comes to worse I might just go ahead and drill a small 1/8 hole into the butterfly to see what happens.

Thanks for your help. I will wait on the fuel reg for now and try to see if I can hear the iac working today. I must say after I had cleaned the iac and throttle body my idle did go close to 600rpm when in drive and stopped, but it should be higher. Again my problem is fine when in park it gets real...

Does this really work? I am having the same problem with my idle, it is around 500rpm when stopped, but not all the time, sometimes it is at 750 but most of the time stays in the 500rpm range. Do you guys suspect it might be the fuel regulator? I already cleaned the IAC, so should I just drill a sma...

P0304 #4 cylinder misfire help

Ok I just got the P0304 code which is a #4 cylinder misfire. I know there are things to check like the coil pack, wires, plugs, fuel injectors, and intake mani gasket. I guess the cheapest place to start is plugs and wires. I already changed the wires and still getting code, plugs look good. My idle...

I hope its not the hub bearing bolt, I dont even have a socket to remove it.
I found this on the srtforums.
"It's the pad moving in the caliper. Stop it goes up, release it falls down. Nothing odd about it really, just allows for no drag fit to the rotor"
This may be my problem but I am not sure
