    replaced CPS, now my idle is way too low..

    it runs fine (no more cutting out on the freeway!) but once it's warmed up, my idle drops to 500-550rpm, which is far too low. in the 3 years I've had it, it always idled at 650-700rpm. I'm thinking it could possibly be a vacuum leak, but I'm not sure where it would be from. any ideas? I have a new intake boot on the way (I've repaired mine a few times), but last time I checked it there weren't any holes.

    also figured out where my steering rattle was coming from.. my outer left ball joint is trashed. but hey, my control arms only have 163,000 miles on them! :)

      crank position sensor. :)

      got a bunch of shit coming, gotta order more though.. going to replace the grommets on the head, the temp sensor, intake boot, control arms, and brakes. probably more whenever I figure out what the deal is with my poor car. I don't want it to be fast, I just want it to run correctly! :(
