The last few days the coupe has been one pissed off puppy.
She's not idling to save her life. I know last time I asked about a similar problem someone mentioned a vaccum leak, but I'm not 100% sure that's the problem.
Here's what's going on now.
Now she starts up and as always the cold-start idle is way up there (2-3K) and does not kick itself down. I have to tap the gas to drop it once it's warm. But now, after the car is warm, she has no idle. I mean none. I have to step on the gas and brake at the same time to keep the car from stalling. Her rpm's hit the floor without my foot on the gas pedal. Now, this happens all the time. If I'm just at a stop, coming to a stop, or just let off the gas on the highway while doing any speed. It's incredibly weird.
The car's an auto, and even when I put it in Neutral, the idle's still fukd.
I'm not sure if this is a fuel delivery problem (ie. filters, lines, float, etc.), a vaccum problem, or an internal carb problem.
I'm just not sure anymore.
