get someone to check it the ICV (idle control ventil) is connected propperly

also if the valve cover ventilation hose is on good, and if the cable for the throttle body is adjusted correctly , although that shouldnt make a difference as the TB has an adjuster screw which limits the springback on the venturi flap :yawn:
