my starter is bad.. first step is to replace it then once i will get to the idle problem. with the clutch i will attempt to bleed the whole system this weekend.. im wondering if there is an air pocket in it that is making it mess up meaning the shop who did my clutch prolly didnt bleed it right.. havent bleed a clutch in a while but i will re learn quick.
with the idle problem i price shoped for tps and other stuff attached to the intake.. autozone or advance doenst have anything on this.. they thing i need to get a who new assembly.. so i was thinking of taking it apart and cleaning the throttle and compenments.. i have an k&n typoon ram air intake.. only mod i have by the way and it was installed a year ago.. i didnt touch or disconnect anything from the car.. so i dont know.. i guess once i get it running i can figure and trouble shoot one thing at a time. wish me luch.

Not a good intake BTW. Heat soaks a little, and most people loose power with it. It's only good for changing the engine tone. I doubt that this has anything to do with how you're car's running though.
