Are you talking about an rough lopey idle like it has a big cam, or surging idle where it idles at 700rpm then 1300rpm, then back down to 700?

michaela8456 02-26-2014 10:21 AM

yes , surging 700 to 1300 up and down does it off and on not always study do you think i need to clean maf sensor or what thanks for your reply please help with any thoughts

Yeah, that would be a good start to try a narrow it down. If you do a search for "surge", you'll be reading for days on all the threads on it. And how they fixed it.
