    Sorry I left you all in the dark, I ended up going to my dads shop a couple days late, and now I am coming back monday afternoon. We are having the tuning guy at the shop look at it. He will probably check voltages on the sensors and check the vac lines. Most likely the voltage reading is off on the IAC or somthing else electronic. Anyways, that and the EGR is getting blocked off because the studs broke off in the manifold while I was replacing the starter . :roll:

    Friday, I bought a GT, for 250 from my friend. Sweet deal, its got a new/used motor, and body is very clean/no rust. Its got a long history, from my friends boss, to us, to me. It was used to transport drugs at one point, run from cops and has been very popo friendly for the past couple years (sat at their impoundment lot for a while, kind of like being grounded when your little.) LOL, hope they dont find anything when I get pulled over.

    Yay, yesterday I went to my dads shop, and we adjusted the voltage on the tps. My car is now fixed!! yay! Its not bucking or having a weird idle. After adjusting the TPS, we lowered and adjusted the idle so it now idles at 750 like it should. My dad said that it will run richer now because it was never fully opening up, and I noticed a faster delivery of the torque. Its like no hesitation, even though there wasnt much to begin with. Now to block the EGR and patch a hole in the trunk.

    Today, my starter died.. again. I just replaced it with a remanned starter. I thought it would at least make it to 6 months. Guess not...
