Trouble with 89 GTA
I have a problem with my 89 GTA which keeps getting worse: the idle speed is becoming to low, so when I have to stop, I apply the brake with my left foot and keep the right one on the gas, to keep it from dying on me.
Other times the idle is to high. I come to a stop and it's idling at up to 1300 rpms.
While driving, it feels kind of rough. No error code. Any ideas?
