Your videos are absolutely amazing! I appreciate the help alot. My 95 prizm has me and alot of my mechanic buddy's scratching there heads. 7afe , 268,000. Well taken care of. Sometimes it's hard to start. Spray a little brake cleaner in the intake it usually fires right up, then idles a bit crazy and at the same time the tachometer goes back and forth. And I realize the tach goes crazy at the same times the idle is crazy. I've replaced both 02 sensors. All brand new distributor, plugs, wires. New ecu. New fuel filter, fuel pump. But not sending unit.
my 2001 4.2L in my Ford E-150 has been having an idle issue once it warms up. The idle will start bouncing from 300 to 800 rpm when I stop at a light or am driving slowly through a parking lot. It has stalled multiple times when backing out of a parking spot (while the engine is still warm). Now this issue doesn't happen all the time. It may do it at 3-4 stop lights and not do it for 5-6 lights. If I sit and idle at a drive thru, when I park, it will do it. This bouncing usually last about 5-6 bounces before it smooths back out. Sometimes it hesitates when I need to start quickly like getting on a round-a-bout or when I take off quickly. I took it to my mechanic and he checked for codes. There were none. He cleaned the throttle body with a spray cleaner. Didn't help. He changed the mass air flow and that did nothing to fix the issue. They took it for a test ride and it has yet to act up for them. As soon as I pull out of the shop, it starts doing it again. I took it back to them immediately, and it did it for them for a few seconds. In the meantime, I have to hold both feet on the gas and brake at stop lights so it doesn't stall out. This is my music Van and would hate to break down heading to the gig.
@@rickymack01 Unfortunately, not yet. I was expecting a reply from HVAC Mechanic, but he hasn't responded to me. My local auto repair is going down the list of possible issues (mass airflow sensor, throttle body, IAC, vacuum leaks, EGR, DPFE) It hasn't cost me anything yet since none of their fixes have worked. The brought in a former Ford mechanic that worked at the dealer for 27 years. No codes, but a few measurements that are slightly out of spec. I have drove the van like this for 2 weeks. I have to 2 foot the gas and brake pedals at the stop lights so it wont stall
My 1998 EJ 20 run at 2000 rpm then drop to 1500 rpm, back fires and some time stall during acceleration also hard start. Have been trying to work on throttle sensors without success but i can drive it around. Good lesson i will keep on pushing hard to fix all the problem
Thanks a lot man! I think my 2014 acura mdx has issue with Throttle Position Sensor. I hit the throttle it has lag like you mentioned in the video. It is fine when idle.
Throttle position sensor is a potentiometer that provides information on how open the throttle is. Air idle control is actually an actuator that opens and closes to regulate air flow. If there's a vacuum leak the computer is trying to regulate the air flow via the air idle control, which assumes there are no leaks. So surging can take place, or complete dropped in idle or even the engine stopping. The butterfly in the body itself is just a valve. Throttle position senor can also effect and automatic transmissions shifting. But if you have a fully equipped spare, you could swap things to find out what has failed or needs to be replaced. The concept of what is covered in this content is still valid for those vehicles that do not have a ODBII port. I am aware of this as I have a vehicle that has a system designed by Renault and Bendix.
@@Mauser1965 yeah my mecânico Said that the guy who was trying to 'fix" my car messed up the throttlle body sensors. He Said he tuned them by hand with no device...... He just said if i get a new butterfly the problem will bem fixed

hi there 03 bmw e46 agter idle start when secondary airpump shuts down engine hesitating chk engine lights on and if u clear check engine light everything is fine ,when engine is warm nothing happens during start up . injectors , coils, intake hoses , fuel pump , idle valve,spark plugs, engine oil , transmission oil expansion tank, all replace no change. please reply vaccum hoses in front check not the rear ones
My RPMs go up when I press on the brake pedal. We just change master cylinder break booster pads and calipers. It stoped doing it for about 2 months. Now it’s happening again.
Excellent information. Thanks! Currently, I have somewhat similar situation with my 99 4Runner where RPM revving up at 1.5 to 2 when step on gas while take off and smooth it out and engine getting rough while come to stop light and noticed RPM revving up when getting ready to take off. I Checked and cleaned throttle body with seafoam, replaced TPS, air hose, and PCV valve, and still have the same problem. I have no check engine light come on nor codes. Wondering what do you think it might be.
I have this problem where the idle rpm jumps around while at a stop light, then it dies occasionally. But the problem goes away. It only occurs every few days. Strange.
My son has a 2018 volvo s90. I believe it's a 6 cylinder. He says that after he's been driving the car for awhile and comes to a stop light, the car will start reving up on it's own. Even though he has his foot on the break. He says this also happens when he puts the car in park. Do you know what could be causing this problem and maybe a little advise??
I have a vacuum leak I couldn't find. The idol was bouncing up and down, it was a rubber seal in between the brake master cylinder and the brake vacuum booster. When I press my brakes hard it idles fine, and when I take my foot off it bounces.
Started my car yesterday and before I took it out of park I heard the engine revving as if I had my foot on the gas. And since I did not, I was freaking out. It was around 3000 rpms when I shut it off and it had no indication of stopping. It was like a stuck accelerator except I didn’t even touch the accelerator. After I gave it a minute to rest, I turned it on again and it went up to 2000, stayed there for a while, and sank down to 1500. Which I think is still pretty high for idling in park. Each time I turn it on it gets a little bit better but I’m too worried to drive it again. Any idea what that could be?
@@StarrSingoff_ hey bro I’m waiting on my appointment this next Monday been sitting for now I’ll let you know what they say once they figure it out I had 2 different mechanics look at it and couldn’t figure it out

2004 Honda Pilot. Starting it up after more than a year not running. Battery bad, but It started and ran fine, then began to fluctuate between 1000 and 2000rpm. I put it in gear and it drove into the driveway. I will be looking at it later. Thanks for the first places to look.
My honda civic is doing the revving thing but all the lights in the dash are also blinking and the engine revs while in park and the rpm dial goes up and down while it is revving in park and then all the dials stop working but it keeps revving. Throttle position sensor was changed and so was the alternator and it is still doing it. I'll upload it I have a video
My 2010 Camaro started doing this after I installed new transmission and a new engine was also in stalled 2 years having it with 170k miles but never cleaned the throttle body for 2 years so maybe it is that
Mine idles normal but when AC is on it it revs and goes back to normal then revs constantly at cold start it revs high then goes normal ... it started when I cleaned out the throttle body
Only once in a while this happens, and feels like it will stall but doesn't.....could it be an o2 sensor? I know i have a manifold gasket leak cause i see the oil 😮
My 2001 jeep Cherokee 4.0 idles up and down from normal to 1000rpm only when I turn on my defrost. I replaced the TPS and this was not the issue. Any idea what can cause this?
I found a 5/16 hose with a pop out pressure valve on the passenger side underneath my 2014 Silverado next to the transmission dipstick,it was leak air,
Have an older vehicle a 94 GMC 7.4 engine . At high idle the rps drop for a few seconds and then goes back to high rpms during 2500 rpms. Not sure what the drop is.

Im in a truck stop in California and I have the same issue. Only happens when I have to be stopped for reset after maybe 3 times to have the smart idling active for battery charge. Today the RPMs went to 900 to 1400 and the vibrations woke me up.
Just started happening when I clean my mass air flow sensor Do I need to replace it? Guy at AutoZone said that you can't spray the mass air flow sensor spray directly on the mass air flow sensor so it screwed it up it might have bent
My car seems to rev up and down intermittently mainly when I haven’t driven it for a couple of days, but it will also rev on its on accord when I’m driving too. Would this be the same problem as in the video?

Anybody have an idea for my issue. While in drive and pressing the brake I have noticed the rpm’s will jump by 1. When slowing down to a stop without the brake I noticed no jump in rpm’s. I have a 2015 328i gt F34. I appreciate any advise.
What all did you have to do for wiring im putting this swap into my ford courier and there is no info online for it. Been winging everything but trying to get wiring information now
My 89 Ford Bronco stalls, engine shuts off when i come to a complete stop.i replaced the tps, idle air valve, distributor, fuel filter. And still does it, any ideas?
Same thing happened to my 95 integra turns out part of the wire harness was messed up and not reading the vehicle correctly. Maybe that could be the cause?
What can be the cause of the RPM up and down, after the engine turns off and turns back on the RPM goes stable. When I drive a few miles the same thing happens Kindly advise RAV4 2001 (1998 cc) with engine 1AZ-FSE
Hello. I have a problem. Don’t have much to spend to take it to mechanic. I changed injectors myself. Now the whole engine is shaking. I just want to know holden commodore Omega VE series 2 LPG 2013. I have ordered manifold air intake gasket but it has no rubber or sealant something. Just wanna know does it really don’t need i have to buy some sealant or something else for it because it’s a metal piece that they call it gasket.
I'm not sure if you would know the answer to this but I do drive a 2016 blue bird visions bus with a Roush clean tech v10 according to what our shop mechanic told me. We are having an dicken's of a time trying to figure out a VERY random issue on the bus. Every once in a while, it will just shut itself off when its idling. I can be at a traffic light, parked in the yard or doing a student stop. The only consistent thing is that it always does it in an idle moment. But it can go weeks between shut downs and it always starts up right away. The mechanics have hooked it up to the computer and it is throwing NO codes, no error messages nothing. They have tried a new fuel pump, and some sort of new modual they "borrowed" from another sister bus and it keeps doing it. Some times it will surge the RPM's but that might happen 10 minutes or more before it actually shuts down if it decides to. We are at our wits end trying to figure out what is going on since its not giving us any clues as to check. I know its a long shot that you might know anything, but maybe some other things to look for out of the ordinary? We have 5 guys in our garage, and all of them are just bewildered as to why its doing this since nothing comes up anywhere about it. thank you for any help if any you can think of. We are stumped.
If it shuts off with no idling or sputtering, I would lean toward a wiring issue somewhere, but anything I say is a guess. Those types of issues can be the hardest to find.
My car kinda idles funny when parked but when on the highway it will be fine then all of a sudden it feels like it flutters but it's noticeable on my seat. I changed the spark plugs, the wires, intake manifold gaskets and still does it it almost feels like it's intermittent but it does it every time I drive it but at least once every time. 94 Ford Taurus SHO
This is happening to me it was throwing p0300, I changed the spark plugs and boots, there is no more codes but now the rpm’s go up when I hit the breaks, it does seem like there’s a misfire still ? Please help
I hate Kia forte, I dislike Kia’s period. I always had random problems even with new ones but when I didn’t they ran pretty good. Just couldn’t miss an oil change, if you do you’ll be in trouble with clumpy oil and void engine gone.
I am having issues with my ford F150 2009. it just had an engine replaced and started to rev on its own while parked after driving for maybe a couple minutes. it will rev and shake but drop the rpms down after the shake. Feels like a misfire by the lack of rhythm in the shaking. If you could help me figure this out, this would be great.
Try replacing the spark plugs. I just watched a video from Scotty Kilmer and he was talking about how a lot of people will try to troubleshoot all kinds of things before they even change the spark plugs. I’m going to try it on my Tahoe because it’s doing the same thing.
Some throttle bodies use an idle air control, while others have a small motor on the butterfly plate controlled by the computer, which holds the plate open slightly while the engine is idling.
My 2006 Chrysler 300 Srt does this, crank fuse blew and replace fuse and is good but once I turn on the car at idle the rpm go up and once I put it in drive it dies, throttle body has been replace and reprogrammed throttle body.
@@youngdayo6635 no sir, at time when it stays running and I’m able to put it in drive it jerks and at idle it sounds like it’s getting more air in the throttle body.

@@canivaas_loreto9715 other than being told to clean the throttle body, no. When it gets warmer outside I will be making some paint repairs and cleaning the throttle body. Any ideas yourself?
i tried cleaning the throttle body up and after I put everything back together my rpms are high and wont go down and check engile light is on hondaa accord 2008
After cleaning a throttle body, the cleaning fluid can cause high RPM and rich condition, which may trigger a code. It should clear after 4-5 minutes, though.
i have nissan sunny n16 with QG16 engine, the engine revs up and down when i fully depress the clutch pedal. I checked everything and changed the throttle body but did not fix the problem.
Can this case problems also with the automatic transmission? RMP is very high on P and N 2500, sometimes even 4k. And when I'm driving there's total malfunction between the speed ans the RPM and I'm struggling to move. 😒
That could also be a neutral safety switch/ shift position sensor either bad or out of adjustment due to wear on the switch or shifting cable. Depending on particular vehicle you have, computer could be getting a conflicting signal about what position the transmission shifter is in while moving.
We have a quick question for you, sir, we recently had the engine mounts in our daughters 2015 Audi A3, and after we picked up the vehicle from Firestone it started idling just like you described in your video while in park mode. Could changing engine mounts caused this? Thanks in advance!
Other videos say to turn the key to on and then off then turn the engine on and step on the brake put the emergency brake then put the car in drive and let it idle for about 5 to 7 minutes. If it's a computer problem it will fix it
@@Cezzm every time it would idle whether ac was on or not. The fan motor had a short fan motor is used to keep the motor cool and the second fan is used for ac neither one of my fans were working
Could this happen from a dirty or oily air filter ? I had an oil leak engine got washed ,and the filter got wet and dirty dirty. Going next week to get new one. I’m just worried. Is this a possible issue ?
No codes. rpms move up down on load ? Tryd. Carberrettir spray .. New spark plugs. . Iac. Seems ok 👍.. vacum no luck !! Micra k11. 2002 .. . Also car runs ok. Bit hestitation pedal ? .. maf ok .reading 10%
Straightforward information for a common problem. I like it.
Ok...what was it then????
It can also be a crank shaft position sensor or a bad fuel pump or a maf sensor problem or a bad throttle body if the vehicle has one
I mean a bad mass air flow sensor if it has one . Or a bad crankshaft position sensor which all vehicles have i apologize for the screw up

Mine stays high idle in mornings and when coming to a stop stays high idle not real bad but annoying still haven’t figured it out
Im in a truck stop in California and I have the same issue. Only happens when I have to be stopped for reset after maybe 3 times to have the smart idling active for battery charge. Today the RPMs went to 900 to 1400 and the vibrations woke me up.
Just started happening when I clean my mass air flow sensor
Do I need to replace it? Guy at AutoZone said that you can't spray the mass air flow sensor spray directly on the mass air flow sensor so it screwed it up it might have bent
Is this happen after oil change, air filter cleaning?
Thanks. Yes, my engine is idling after a drive and parked?
My car seems to rev up and down intermittently mainly when I haven’t driven it for a couple of days, but it will also rev on its on accord when I’m driving too. Would this be the same problem as in the video?
Bantam 1.3 rocam. Is idling but not revving up.?. Please help
I have 2013 Cadillac CTS , there is no check engine light on but my keep on raving up and down while stopped on the red light , do any yall might know what I can do to make it drive smoothly 😁
Anybody have an idea for my issue. While in drive and pressing the brake I have noticed the rpm’s will jump by 1. When slowing down to a stop without the brake I noticed no jump in rpm’s. I have a 2015 328i gt F34. I appreciate any advise.
What all did you have to do for wiring im putting this swap into my ford courier and there is no info online for it. Been winging everything but trying to get wiring information now
The car's RPM indicator rises when I release the gas pedal ... What is the problem
I think you need to reset the rpm
My 89 Ford Bronco stalls, engine shuts off when i come to a complete stop.i replaced the tps, idle air valve, distributor, fuel filter. And still does it, any ideas?
Same thing happened to my 95 integra turns out part of the wire harness was messed up and not reading the vehicle correctly. Maybe that could be the cause?
@@jaykuroki5932 I'll check it out. Thanks
What can be the cause of the RPM up and down, after the engine turns off and turns back on the RPM goes stable. When I drive a few miles the same thing happens
Kindly advise

Did you clean air filter and tried again , oil change?
Hi I a Mitsubishi galant VRG the rev goes up and down while driving the rev is normal but when I stop it goes up to 3000rpm
Very concise troubleshooting. Thanks!
I have a automatic that click every 5 or 10 sec when idle ,then revv for 5 sec before going back to normal,is this common for a automatic?
What if it revs while driving too
Most likely spark plugs are really bad
My truck is a ram diesel 6.7 what it could be it doesn't have none of what you mensined
In generel, RPM level is at 1000, But once i turned on A/c, RPM goes down.. What can be the cause.?
Toyota, Corolla
Did you face this after oil change? Did you clean air filter?
That was straight to the point thank you a lot
Hello. I have a problem. Don’t have much to spend to take it to mechanic. I changed injectors myself. Now the whole engine is shaking. I just want to know holden commodore Omega VE series 2 LPG 2013. I have ordered manifold air intake gasket but it has no rubber or sealant something. Just wanna know does it really don’t need i have to buy some sealant or something else for it because it’s a metal piece that they call it gasket.
If aftermarket injectors. You need tune
I'm not sure if you would know the answer to this but I do drive a 2016 blue bird visions bus with a Roush clean tech v10 according to what our shop mechanic told me. We are having an dicken's of a time trying to figure out a VERY random issue on the bus. Every once in a while, it will just shut itself off when its idling. I can be at a traffic light, parked in the yard or doing a student stop. The only consistent thing is that it always does it in an idle moment. But it can go weeks between shut downs and it always starts up right away. The mechanics have hooked it up to the computer and it is throwing NO codes, no error messages nothing. They have tried a new fuel pump, and some sort of new modual they "borrowed" from another sister bus and it keeps doing it. Some times it will surge the RPM's but that might happen 10 minutes or more before it actually shuts down if it decides to. We are at our wits end trying to figure out what is going on since its not giving us any clues as to check. I know its a long shot that you might know anything, but maybe some other things to look for out of the ordinary? We have 5 guys in our garage, and all of them are just bewildered as to why its doing this since nothing comes up anywhere about it.
thank you for any help if any you can think of. We are stumped.
If it shuts off with no idling or sputtering, I would lean toward a wiring issue somewhere, but anything I say is a guess. Those types of issues can be the hardest to find.
My car kinda idles funny when parked but when on the highway it will be fine then all of a sudden it feels like it flutters but it's noticeable on my seat. I changed the spark plugs, the wires, intake manifold gaskets and still does it it almost feels like it's intermittent but it does it every time I drive it but at least once every time. 94 Ford Taurus SHO
This is happening to me it was throwing p0300, I changed the spark plugs and boots, there is no more codes but now the rpm’s go up when I hit the breaks, it does seem like there’s a misfire still ? Please help
Check the vacuum line going to the brake booster it likely got disconnected
Just finished installing new spark plugs and ignition coils to my Kia Forte 2010.. it runs well now no need for this
I hate Kia forte, I dislike Kia’s period. I always had random problems even with new ones but when I didn’t they ran pretty good. Just couldn’t miss an oil change, if you do you’ll be in trouble with clumpy oil and void engine gone.
I am having issues with my ford F150 2009. it just had an engine replaced and started to rev on its own while parked after driving for maybe a couple minutes. it will rev and shake but drop the rpms down after the shake. Feels like a misfire by the lack of rhythm in the shaking. If you could help me figure this out, this would be great.
Forgot to add that I already checked for any codes but non of them showed up. only a code for my TPMS sensors
The throttle body may need to Relearn. Often the computer can Relearn on its own, but it can vary and is vehicle specific.
thank you sir. This is a good video. sadly I've done all of these and mine still has it. it is minimal so i think ill just keep an eye on it
Other couple possibilities... Have you checked the fuel line pressure? Or something as simple as a fuel filter?
@@Mauser1965 good ideas and thank you. I think I'm good there. It has fast throttle feedback and I have changed the fuel filter recently.
Try replacing the spark plugs. I just watched a video from Scotty Kilmer and he was talking about how a lot of people will try to troubleshoot all kinds of things before they even change the spark plugs. I’m going to try it on my Tahoe because it’s doing the same thing.
@@thankfulblessed3774
Done but thank you. I actually wish I hadn't. With 180k they still looked great. needed to be re-gapped but they were good.
My car nissan x trail T 30 the rpm is going up and down what is the cause.
Same here…any solutions?
Thanks a million! Straight forward info.
Fuel injector?
I have an audi a4 it idling high i to of the throttle body it is slightly open it doesn't stay close fully is that normal
Some throttle bodies use an idle air control, while others have a small motor on the butterfly plate controlled by the computer, which holds the plate open slightly while the engine is idling.
My car is revving while idle but it seems like when i turn the ac on it calms down a bit, what does it sound like could be the problem to you?
found anything on this I’m experiencing the same
My 2006 Chrysler 300 Srt does this, crank fuse blew and replace fuse and is good but once I turn on the car at idle the rpm go up and once I put it in drive it dies, throttle body has been replace and reprogrammed throttle body.
Same i can let you know if i find anything on my issues, what codes do you have? Did you have any 02 codes
@@youngdayo6635 had cam position faults and I replaced it now I just have misfire that all
@@chrisjimenez2311 any limp mode?
@@youngdayo6635 no sir, at time when it stays running and I’m able to put it in drive it jerks and at idle it sounds like it’s getting more air in the throttle body.
I have 2016 jetta with 334897 km on it..its going good..only ptoblem its having it when i break the rpm goes to 4..i cleaned the throtal but its still having the problem...ANY IDEA
same 2008 jetta 2.5, changed maf sensor, after market pcv valve replacement,cleaned throttle body. ran a bottle of fuel system cleaner..that stopped it from stalling. now i get the random spike in rpm when clutch is engaged . im going to try a couple things will post if i solve it
@@liljimmy9201 would really appriciate it brother
I have a 2017 Nissan Sentra, and every time I accelerate over 25 mph, the RPM Revs up, and then when I accelerate, it goes down. What could be causing this?
Same here but x trail…any solutions?
I have a 2008 corvette with no codes. Every now and then when coming to a stop the engine revs up and lunges forward. If I stay on brakes it stalls. Again, no codes found and does not happen all the time. Any idea what to look for?
Did you find out?
@@canivaas_loreto9715 other than being told to clean the throttle body, no. When it gets warmer outside I will be making some paint repairs and cleaning the throttle body. Any ideas yourself?
i tried cleaning the throttle body up and after I put everything back together my rpms are high and wont go down and check engile light is on
hondaa accord 2008
After cleaning a throttle body, the cleaning fluid can cause high RPM and rich condition, which may trigger a code. It should clear after 4-5 minutes, though.
@@JereB698 that’s the thing it hasn’t. Maybe messed up one of the sensors
i have nissan sunny n16 with QG16 engine, the engine revs up and down when i fully depress the clutch pedal. I checked everything and changed the throttle body but did not fix the problem.
Don't you love it when you never got a reply?
@@peacepoet1947 it’s a big disappointment
@@sroodjalal2320 did you get your problem fixed?
While parked my rpms would fluctuate fairly bad. I turned off my defrost and it stopped
Did you figure out the problem
It's the idle air control valve 100%, don't cheap out on it.
Mine idle’s when it’s cold start and calms down once it gets warmed up I cleans the throttle body already. Any clues ?
That's typically normal
my camry started like that and after 2 days of not starting it it just wont start anymore
My vehicle does this only when it's cold just by 200 rpm at idle I am suspecting it's the IAC
Same with me
Any updates?
Same any update ?
Can this case problems also with the automatic transmission? RMP is very high on P and N
2500, sometimes even 4k. And when I'm driving there's total malfunction between the speed ans the RPM and I'm struggling to move. 😒
Vehicle speed sensor tolerance?
That could also be a neutral safety switch/ shift position sensor either bad or out of adjustment due to wear on the switch or shifting cable. Depending on particular vehicle you have, computer could be getting a conflicting signal about what position the transmission shifter is in while moving.
We have a quick question for you, sir, we recently had the engine mounts in our daughters 2015 Audi A3, and after we picked up the vehicle from Firestone it started idling just like you described in your video while in park mode. Could changing engine mounts caused this? Thanks in advance!
most likely a vacuum leak. hoses can get unplugged by accident while moving the engine up and down to change the mounts.
Other videos say to turn the key to on and then off then turn the engine on and step on the brake put the emergency brake then put the car in drive and let it idle for about 5 to 7 minutes. If it's a computer problem it will fix it
I’m gonna try this
@@dlbutler0113what happened? Did you fix it
@@Cezzm yes it was my fan had a short in the motor
@@dlbutler0113 thank you so much I want ask the idle up and down just when you turn the AC? Or every time
@@Cezzm every time it would idle whether ac was on or not. The fan motor had a short fan motor is used to keep the motor cool and the second fan is used for ac neither one of my fans were working
Could this happen from a dirty or oily air filter ? I had an oil leak engine got washed ,and the filter got wet and dirty dirty. Going next week to get new one. I’m just worried. Is this a possible issue ?
It could be that the MAF sensor is dirty or has oil on it
Thank you
I wish you could help more
It was very helpful my friend, than you very much.
Really good video 👍🏼
Thank you so much ❤
Great video helped alot. Thanks
Ive change my bank #1 sensor then rpm goes between zero and one.engine light on again
Same I switched out the 02 sensors and still have the codes have a misfire as well
No codes. rpms move up down on load ? Tryd. Carberrettir spray .. New spark plugs. . Iac. Seems ok 👍.. vacum no luck !! Micra k11. 2002 .. . Also car runs ok. Bit hestitation pedal ? .. maf ok .reading 10%
My 2014 chevy 2500hd rpm starts fluctuating I change the transmission fluid and it fixes it every time. I’m not joking.
Same thing happens tomy W124 Mercedes
