Re: Idling Problems
you have the symptoms of when an intake gasket starts leaking on you model. The car has a vacuum leak, allowing too much air into the engine when cool, then when the engine heats up and the parts expand, the vacuum leak is eliminated. The clunk you're hearing from the belt area is either a bad serpentine belt tensioner, or the timing belt is starting to go.
