u may want to check ur fast idle thermo valve. it is located under the tb and it has a coolant line running to it. it has 3 10mm bolts holding it in, take them out. disconnect the coolant line. YES UR ARE GOING TO SPILL A LITTLE BIT OF COOLANT. there are to 8mm bolts holding a plate on, it is the opposite side of the where the coolant line goes. take the two bolts off, remove the plate. and u should see a white disk. take a flathead and turn it clockwise. which will tighten it. and put it all back together. it should fix the ur idle. i had the same problem with my 94. it was idling right around 400-500. the it would stall. till the motor became operating temp.

ya i think im going to have to do that this weekend sometime....i got new spark plugs, cap, rotor, pcv valve, and an aem sri and the rpms are still low so i think turning those bolts or w/e is prolly my best bet.

thanks for all the help guys!
