the car was idle surging real bad the past week so i took the air intake and maf off to find the screen on the maf is half torn away from the plastic. so i replace the maf only to find the damn thing is still surging. i have replaced every single piece on this cursed car n it continues to shit out on me. what else is this?. could the tune wolfpack did be effected from reseting the computer from disconnecting the battery or what. i am out of ideas,money. and most off all my sanity and patience. any ideas?

Did you check to see if your chip came loose on the processor?

do a base idle reset....your t.b. is probably not opened enough at idle causing your idle to surge since the car wants to stall but the IAC valve keeps letting air in

i dk what it is. i tried everything. messed with the iac the maf the throttle body the computer and no prevail the car still surges. went over every vacum line none are lose or cracked or broke. played with throttle response cuz it became shitty as well. really starting to hate the fox breed and the bs problems they get. even took the iac off cleaned it and re instaled it. nothing works

Have you done the base idle reset ? This has to be done exactly the way stated in the link or you'll be wasting your time.

Maybe you should do like you said and push it over a cliff? It might help.....

I had a surging idle with my 95 car. What a PITA. I replaced the TB with a BBK from Summit and the issues have gone away. Tried a Professional Products before that (not by choice, it was branded as Summit's own) and the car ran like absolute crap and the TB stuck too. Returned that one for the BBK and no issues since. Pretty easy to set up the BBK... it had a big old brass screw to set the base idle and then they had me turn the threaded rod stop 1/2 turn from there and lock it down. Car runs well now, idles properly and does not stall. Of course when you change the TB you must set the TPS at .99 volts and all of that stuff. Maybe I just got lucky and that did the trick who knows. Get a good digital volt meter and set the TPS at .99 volts. Not saying that it is the culprit but it cannot hurt the throttle response either.
