idle
i just bought this firebird as a project about a month ago and when i start it, it idles super low around 400 and stalls.
while i was doing the cam i cleaned all the intake passages, checked the egr and cleaned the iac.
any thoughts?

Re: idle
Make sure the manifold vacuum is good, over 16" (18-21") at the map sensor. Check the coolant temp sensor & connector, do a resistance test to the cts. It changes resistance w/ temp. Check the ecm grounds & look for vacuum leaks.
