high, surging idle
alright so ive got a fun one guys.
at first i had an idle surge so i of course replaced the
iac iac
, (code p0505) then it went away for a bit and came back at random, but would idle high (around 1500-1700)
replaced
ect ect
( it tested bad 2 ohms).
it was running at 110 today then the second i snap accelerated it started surging
i have a little bit of what seems to be valve noise, not to worried about it,
motor motor
has 198k on it, no idea about
timing belt timing belt
, distributor timing is most likely off due to my having to do the seal on it and not getting a chance to set it back up properly, not the biggest deal.
im at a loss.
no there are no vaccum leaks i smoke tested the car.

Re: high, surging idle
get your ignition timing straight man....probably fix it right there...and since you replaced the IACV and opened up the coolant lines...did you happen to burp it after...even a little air will cause idle issues...
