Odd idle from 98 2.0
Wierd idle problems, idles very low in neutral/park, but when I put it in gear, the idle kicks up (you can here it), nothing bad, just higher than idle in neutral/park. However, it vibrates enough that the hood shakes when it is in gear....... Anyone have any thoughts?

Re: Odd idle from 98 2.0
check your fans and make sure they both are operating properly if not check the relay that controls your main fan and the ac fan i have almost the same problem with my 98 contour sport and that is what i was told by my friend who is a mechanic

Re: Odd idle from 98 2.0
fans wont make your car idle rough.
how many miles? Could be your intake manifold gasket.. or a simple vacuum leak. Changed your plugs/wires lately? any CEL codes?

Re: Odd idle from 98 2.0
why in the world would two electric fans set on a relay make an engine idle rough?
doesn't make sense to me.

Re: Odd idle from 98 2.0
tps (throttle positioning sensor) is an idea too (forgot to mention this in my first post).. and the IAC
