Small Idle issue today...Need Advice
#11
Yes, this is the first time I've ever seen this, myself. I've seen this in exhaust pipes and radiators that didnt have the holes covered, but never the intake. I wouldn't have believed the car would run with this in there, if I hadn't seen it first hand.
Anyways, thanks to all those who posted to help me out with the problem.

Holy hell! Yeah, I would say that is definately the work of some sort of rodent! Might wanna take the hose assembly apart to make sure no more string, lint, whatever all that crap is is stuck in there between the air filter box and the throttle body. May be some crap stuck on the throttle blade. Clean the MAF too.

Think you found the pulley squeak too lol. Thats amazing though, Ive seen the exhaust, uncovered intakes, heater boxes, and even a cylinder. That little bugger was stubborn for a home, and he found one apparently.

I know you guys are gonna bust my twig and giggleberries for this because this was an issue I should have found the day I bought the car. I pulled open my air filter box and pulled the air intake tube off, this is what I found.
I can only assume that during the 8 months it sat, a lil furry critter made a nice lil home for itself.
I pulled the junk out, cleaned the maf and tb with carb cleaner, bought a new air filter. Put it all back together and it was like I had a new car. I swear to you guys, my assdyno, told me I gained around 20hp. The motor was starving for air and I didn't even know it.
