Joe,

Look on the throttle body for an idle adjustment screw. If you have an owner's manual for the car, it should illustrate its location. Using a flat head screwdriver, you should be able to raise the idle by turning the screw left or counterclockwise.

Make small adjustments and wait for the DME (fuel injection computer) to read them and adjust the idle automatically before you decide whether they're enough or not. Roll down the driver side window and look at the rpm counter while doing this.

I hope this helps.
