Darkchylde -> What the Frig??? (10/15/2003 11:54:01 AM)
I have a 99 3.8. Everytime I come to a stop my idle drops below 500 and wants to stall. I checked my TPS and all the connections around it still nothin. You guys havin the same problem or do I have gremlins?

Cool I'll give that a shot. Is that a typical problem even with the 8's?

Thanks for the advice I'll check those next. My tps reading was 0.7 volts. My book said this was ok. Sound about right? Went ahead and cleaned tha IAT just like Mdvaldosta said, seems to help a little.

Cleaning the Throttle body and egr valve like vfast said will be beneficial too mdvaldosta37909.9838657407

I posted that above originally too but I edited it out real quick lol cause I wasnt sure if it was the same on the 3.8's as the 5.0's. Glad to see it is.
