Wait a bit, see if it returns to normal.

Did you clean your IACV as well?

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

no just the Throttle body thats it . what can couse the rpms to go higher ? sometimes they go down to 700

Did you reset the idle? Unplug the TBS, turn the black screw on the IAC to get RPMs to 650-700 range?

If you removed it, did you use a new gasket?

Check the High idle cam, you might need to back it down now that it is clean.

Besides that, check all the hoses, look for an air leak.

Did you take it off or just use the motorvate method?

i used the motorvate method and its sucks lol. and i have no idea how to reset the idle . can someone help me with that please ?

dont reset the idle. Take the TB off. Take the IAC Valve off. Dont spray a bunch of cleaner down the intake so you will smoke on next startup. when finished, give it about a week to return to normal (prob wont even be that long). The idle was set right to begin with. assuming no one has ever touched it, cleaning it will set things back to where they were supposed to be. adjusting the idle will simply mask whatever is causing it to be higher in the first place.

yea the idle was right it was 600 . so i should just wait after i clean it ? does it fix it with time or how many miles i drive ?

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

anyone had this before ? i waited and nothing

the most likely problem is a leak. either the gasket is bad or something wasnt reattached properly.

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

never removed anything but the 3 hoses and the intake

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

ok so i found a hose that is not connected and i have no idea if thats the way it should be . can someone help me and tell me if that can be cousing the problem ? thx

that is supposed to be open like that. Did you use a new gasket when you took off the TB? its a cheap $2 orange gasket. did you spray a bunch of tb cleaner into the plenum? did you remember to tighten the clamps on the black air tubing that run from the air box to the TB?

That your transmission vent hose. Just adjust the idle.

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

i never removed the tp i used motorbate method and it suckss lol . yea i made sure the clamps are tight theres too bigger hoses and one small one right ? and i dindt spray a lot. and i have no idea how to adjust the idle

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

i noticed one thing one of the clamps for my air filter is broken off but it been like that since i bought it . so i dont think that can be it can it ?

2da mizzax

iTrader: (4)

the clamps on the box? no. the clamps on the hose? yes. the motorvate method does not get it clean properly, so that could be the issue also.

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

oo cuz where my air filter go i can see like a opening by the filter so i thought that might be it .. damn

thats right by the air filter

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

wow it looks like my ENGINE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR is not there

96blkonblkse

iTrader: (18)

^^thats for the ambient air temp sensor..there should be a sensor in there your missing the grommet, it doesnt really matter, as it is before the air filter and the sensor is for diagnostic use only..it doesnt affect performance.

Its unrelated to your other problem, stop avoiding what people are posting, unplug your TPS and adjust your idle with the black screw on the top of the IACV. Usually any time you clean the TB/IACV your idle will go up assuming it was dirty.

iTrader: (26)

It's IATS (intake, not ambient) and there's a bit of debate over whether or not it's only used for 'diagnostics', and whether or not it hinders performance, regardless of what the FSM says.

xkazik

iTrader: (14)

ok so i just unplug the TPS when the car is not on ? then turn it one and adjust it ? then shut it off and connect the TPS back on? doi disconnect 2 of the plugs on it?

I just cleaned by throttle body, took it off and cleaned it right. But then I got lazy and did not clean the IACV.
Drove the car a little, and it was idling really fast, up around 2k at start up. (it was idling low, that's why I wanted to clean it).

Thought about adjusting the idle, but decided to finish the job first.
Took off and cleaned out the IACV, then ran it again.
The idle was much lower now. Around 1000 - 1100 in park and about 850 in gear.

Now I will leave it alone for awhile and see if the idle changes over time.

What I learned = If you are cleaning the TB, go ahead and clean the IACV too, it is easy to take off and makes a difference since the two parts work together.
