Slade901 Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I would go with IAC if it has not been cleaned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90KUTTY Posted December 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 It cant be the plugs or the wires i just replaced those, now about the IAC how would i go about cleaning it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGPilot Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Can you reproduce the surge by having the car in neutral and very slowly pushing the accelerator? If you can I would say TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) has a dead spot at the bottom... 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
