Hello
Would like some help on a question that has probably been asked a million times. My car 's idle goes up and down when it starts and sort of gets better when it warms up. Now its really bad when its cold outside--but now it has gotten better. But it is never a smooth idle--always a little up and down. Since I am an amateur with mine--would like to know any causes of this and possible fixes. I have a scanmaster on it--but don't know how to read it. I just want to have a nice idling car in warm or cold weather. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks--Eric S
 
What you describe is the RPM 'hunting,' Usually until it worms up....Pretty normal for a stock chip. Now, if you mean to say it has a rough idle, as in 'miss', that is not normal. :smile:
