I started to have an ideling problem again!
Well the car runs ok when driving normall , but when at idel not really good. The car stays at one rpm but feels like if the car is a little camed out. But when i put on the a/c It feels like if i have a 300 duration cam (excadurating). When i play around with the pcv hose i can hear the idle go up and down, maybe about 100 rpms or so not too much i think it is the pcv valve can be bad becouse: At my buddys house the other day we were doing something to his car and for some reson i got board and pulled of the pcv valve from the gourment of the valve covers, And heard a tikking sound. I think thats normal?????? Well mine is just there doesent do anything No tikking, the little valve in side doesnt move (nothing). And the pcv valve is about 5 months old, the hose was used before and then put on my car. What should i do? I think tomarow im going to change the pcv valve/hose. Only about $5.00 right?

PCV vales are super cheap and they should rattle when shaken. You could have a million other things causing a rough idle though.
What is the state of tune of the car.
Plugs
Wires
Cap
02
etc...

I posted that at 5:30 AM. I am having a very bad spelling day.
