Re: One Last Problem

Idle surge.

This could be caused by numerous factors, however.


Please try to keep all the questions in one thread, or collect your thoughts THEN post. This way posts won't get pushed onto page 2 as quickly.

99% of the time. Plugs, wires, fuel filter, do not have any thing to do with Idle Surge
Try cleaning the TB to start off with. And search I posted a link a few times...
Ok i am feeling nice today here it is...

Re: One Last Problem

Interesting. Ok well I will say it is very unlikely. You got very lucky that it went away after you changed the plugs. A lot of people have to change a number of things to get rid of it, and sometimes that is not enough. My local mitsu dealer does not even know why. Idle Surge SUCKS!
