@DonutMan181 throttle cleaner works best.

Hey snotty my car only idles poorly when cold what could be the problem.. thanks

[scottykilmer]

@hollywoodboy1994 try everything in this video, and also check for vacuum leaks on the intake manifold system, they often do that.

@Robdee999 houston texas, I work M-F

@whatchain No, but I get up at the crack of dawn. You comment is very unoriginal though, work on better material if you wish to be funny.

@zpflwjvm often dirty fuel injectors, try my video "how to clean fuel injectors on your car" and have that done.

@googie109 You may also want to replace your fuel filter. Could be the culprit of a clogged filter.

Reminds me of Ozzy Ozborn

@scottykilmer Well that sucks I just came from Louisiana. I guess I have to take my car to one of these shady dealers who might mess my car up just because they don't care.

@holdenf91 often vacuum leaks, try my video "finding vacuum leaks with a cigar. and check around the intake manifold and all rubber vacum lines.
