when i start my car, half the time the idle fluctuates a little but will idle pretty good, when i feather the gas pedal or touch it in any way, the car will bog then return to normal.other times it will start, idle and respond like it normaly should, perfect.after 2-2500 rpm it runs very good, acelerates faster than a DE as well as a DSM 420A.the MAF is working, and i thought it was the tps that was responsible, i changed it (but had to re-splice on the old plug onto the new sensor, new one was broken) i turned it on and it idled at 2000 instead of the usual 1100rpm then after a few moments went back to normal but still had the bogging problem.what the hell am i missing? new plugs/wires, cleaned the cap and rotor to test and see if it made a diff. it didnt.any thoughts guys? the car runs good just thins damn off and on problem.
