i hate my car sometimes...
[:@]in one of those moods where i just wanna call it quits. i hate the idle prob my car has. since i changed my tb, its been acting so stupid. i reset the base idle and cleaned the iac. now it starts up normal, but when i take off, i have a hesitation at lower rpms. then when i let off itll stick at like 2k and then drop down real fast, then vroom, right up there again. did i forget something??

I've been there plenty of times buddy. You really need to get your car tuned. Don't call it quits yet. I've had my trans, intake gasket, head gasket, and other small things go on my car suddenly in the past and I just have to keep fixing it. This is just what happens with older cars. We could just get a new car with a warrenty but theres no fun in that.
