That is how are's started a year ago. We were told we needed a new timing censor 800 plus dollars later we had to replace the spark plugs 2 months later because they were miss firing, again 3 months later. Now it is all out of time and we do not know what to do. It runs really ruff with the a/c on or in the morning and early afternoon hours but better at evening hours. It is miss firing and no one knows why. We wish we had answers too.

Default Re: idling problems

It's possible you have a bad idle air control valve, or a vacuum leak. Is the check engine light on?
