Re: high idle on 98 cutlass

I have not experienced this first hand, So, I cant say for sure. But, by the symptoms listed here, it sounds like your cpu is going bad. Like I said, I dont know for sure. Other thing that may or may nto cause this, Possibly a bad ground somewhere dealing with the computer, lose wiring on the computer. Good luck.
