Strange idle
Hello:
Just had my valves adjusted, oil changed, fuel filter replaced, CV boots on both rear axles replaced, front steering rack boots replaced. Also fixed a power steering leak by tightening the clamps and changed air filter...
Now the car seems to idle with a very slight rumble or miss. Plug wires seem on ok , checked the O2 sensor seems ok. No engine lights,,,
When I start the car it settles down ok then in a few seconds seems to have the above idle issue.
I checked all fittings I could ,,, any ideas?
Tks

Reset your ecu....maybe it's freaking out cause of the new settings it's seeing. Unplug the black battery terminal, wait for ~20-30min. then re-install the battery black cable, turn it on and allow it to idle for ~2min. then drive it like you stole it. Maybe this will clear it up. Post back with results.
