My idling is really weird..
I bought a used mustang gt 02 with 60,000 miles on it. It has a very strange idle to it.. and I never owned a mustang before so I don't know if its number but the idle is really really low. it normal idles at 1,000 rpm and sometimes it drops to 500 and sounds like its about die and then goes back up to 1,000.

yeah.. shouldn't really do that, our cars have an annoying IAC (Idle Air Control) valve that likes to get dirty/go bad. I'd check into it.
I also have some weird idling issues but yeah.. lol |
I'm a complete car idiot.... where is it located? maybe a pictures with a red circle around it? and is it easy to clean or get too?

All you need is an 8mm wrench for socket to take it off. Hope this helps. |

I have a 1999 Mustang GT and it did the same thing. It drops really low likes it is going to die but comes back up.... One of your sparkplugs are bad.<<<<Promise

hunting idle is almost always IAC. Ultra low idle/ trying to die is usually a vacuum leak.
|
damn i got that same idle problem
|
it's the IAC I just cleaned the one on my girls '00 gt about 45min ago and it runs perfect idling. Before it was doing the same at idle or sometimes cut off....1k-then die to 500 then rev back to 1k...now it's constant at 900.
