    Lumpy Idle

    I’ve replaced o2 sensor, new air filter and cleaned iacv.

    it jumps between 600-900 rpm’s like it’s cammed.

    i noticed my lights were dimming as the rpm’s dropped.

    any ideas on fixes?

    Sounds like a classic vacuum leak.

    I would start with a smoke test. Any un-metered air is going to throw the idle into an oscillation
