How to fix your stumbling idle issues

This is how to fix your 1.8 BP stumbling idle where the car down revs and wants to die then will go back to normal idle, well there's a throttle body air bypass screw for that that allows you to give it some bypass air at the throttle body.

@JoelsBackYard Now its fixed for good :-) Yesterday I cleaned the maf sensor, and the throttle, and then begun with adjusting the screw - I almost turned the screw all the way down, hehe. Now its just perfect :) Thanks
