Hey guys, i just recently removed my AIV and it doesnt die as much when starting and the revs feel better, but the idle is still low...i figured maybe it was just the idle now...but when I press on the brake it drops a few hundred, and when I lift off its at a nice 700-750rpms. Any ideas? Alternator and battery were tested at Autozone, fuel filter was replaced a bit ago, new spark plugs/wires...whats wrong!! =)-Galen

the rpm are going to drop when you hit the brakes due to extra load on the engine. mine drop about 100. if it drops more, you may have to try adjusting the idle (if you haven't already).
