A few months back i discovered a fuel leak on the motor. So i pulled the manifold off and repaired the hose. Put everything back together and now it idles high (most of the time), sometimes the idle bounces for approx 5 sec. and if i turn on the A/C the car will dies (sometimes). if the A/C is on and I rev it the car will die once foot is off the gas. I took my manifold back off just incase i forgot to hook a vac line back up. Everything is hooked up. I thought maybe it was my throttle cable braket got bent somehow Which was causing it to idle high. i did find out that the cable wasnt adj properly which helped a little bit. but still having all other issues. I did pull BAC off and test and sprayed start fluid in it to clean it up. tested fine and really wasnt that dirty. What else am I missing. Maybe i still missed a vaccum leak somewhere but IDK. Any ideas are appreciated Then i can continue on the body work

 

Did you use new gaskets for the manifold? Spray some carb cleaner around and see if your idle changes.

 

Ya i used new ones. I ordered another gasket for when i pull the motor in a few days. Trying to get it running right again before i pull motor.

 

Think I may have found it. I think i have a small leak where the throttle body and the inlet tube come together. so ill order the new gasket and see what happens.

 

Found it. I decided to go ahead and pull the motor today and when i pulled off my TID there was about a 1/2 inch gap that air was getting in. Im surprised it even ran
