Idle issue when engine warms up??????
 

Every day while driving to work about 10-15min into driving
my car starts to idle eractically when stopping at a red lights or stop sign. I've check for loose connection already. Try another distributor that i know it's good.
Replace my spark plug wires and plugs about 6 months ago.
If any of you have had this issue, I like to know how you got it fix.......tia

I have not HAD this issue.. i HAVE it.., its a pain in the ass. My idle falls to like 200 then up to 900 or 1000 then to 200 again over and over. I've been told its the Idle air control valve. it just needs a good cleaning.. so try that out.. let me know if it helps.!

OK, first of all, your not alone lol. I have had the very same problem... well...similar... when i would drive to school my car would stall on me or idle at like 50 rpm.. i think maybe one cylinder was firing ;) . Anyway... i have tried adjusting the idle sooooo many times, but after i would restart the car, i would have the same problem. So what i did is turn the idle screw to about stock, then i diconected my batery for atleast 15 min. Then i adjusted the idle to stay about 1000 rpm. Now its great! and never stalls on me. Let me know if u have more ?'s

Well, looks like we're in the same boat. I did clean the idle box about a month ago. I'll try again.....I'm going to try a new cap and rotor, too....

will let you know how it goes......

I heard somewhere that the ELD (Electronic Load Detector) may be the cause of the problem. It doesnt adjust idle as per engine load properly.. clean the contacts see if u can fix it.

Damnnn I got the same problem right now tooo.
i think my timing is off though..don't have a timing light :-\
Replaced my waterpump and had to put the timing back on correctly.

what i did with my 90 teg was changed the O2 Sensor closest to the exhaust manifold, i know there's another one but i haven't been able to get the time to change it.. but changing the other one stopped my irratic idling
