well one things for certain replacing the iacv gasket DEFINITELY made a huge idle difference. when shifting to neutral idle hits right back to where it was. i also put a few sprays of seafoam deep creep in the iacv too so that really cleaned it out.

i did another little bit of seafoam today and had a wierd freak out probably the last time i will seafoam for a while. i ran a little thru the line like i normally do and had the exhaust manifold cover off as well. put a little more at the end til the engine was runnning a little rough. then shut off the car. yet the engine was still turning over. if that makes any sence. scared the crap outa me a lil. then i waited about 10 min started it back up. didnt see any leaks in engine area like i did last time which was wierd. just tightened one exhaust manifold bolt a little more.

ran it to work and the idle was pretty much fixed. on way home i drove it around more to warm it up and it idled at around 1k rpm most of the time when completely warmed up. been paying more attention to the cars driving and tests when it is COMPLETELY warmed up especially after driving it and the hesitation occurs to help find out where this is coming from.i sprayed carb cleaner everywhere and didnt see any leaks as far as i could tell.

i took two more vacuum readings. here are the videos


in the next video i restarted it a little later after the previous test and noticed that after a few seconds of running the idle dropped down low to like 2-300 rpms it wasnt at 1k like the one previously. both of these were done after driving around for a while. so the cars not really cold lol


its just confusing more and more
