    last try b4 the car goes over a cliff

    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?

    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.
