I have 75K miles on my 4cylinder eclipse and it idles really slowly. I replaced the spark plugs and wires and it still idles really slowly and if you turn on the ac in stalls. The dealer plugged it in and said no 'codes' appear at all and nothing is wrong. How can I get it to idle faster?

mine always idles at 600 if it is warmed up, if its cold 900-1.5k is normal
if your losing it whenever the a/c comes on , then we haven't had that problem diagnosed yet, i believe there is another person trying to figure that out in this forum.
Have you done all the necessary maintenance? and oil changes? sporty or manual

theres a screw on the throttle body facing out towards the front of the car. my car had some wierd problem with idling and i just adjusted that out and that brought up the idle.

that adujusts the buterfly valve in the throttle body. if you mess with it to much your WOT wont be WOT anymore
