For the low idling, check the ISC and throttle body. Clean them and retest.
For the clicking, apart from the battery conditions, check the wiring connections and condition.
Battery is good, the clicking is from the starter, it will almost start, low idle then die, then turn over and die, then attempt to turn over, then if i keep attempting you'll only hear the starter. It seems like its getting zero fuel, and it only does it when its been sitting in the sun or in very hot weather, i can run the car for 200+ miles and be fine as long as it stays cool inside the car, but as soon as the inside gets hot as hell, thats when the problems start happening. Fuel pressure is good as well. If it is the throttle body wouldnt it be a constant problem?
Does applying some throttle pressure gets the engine started?
The throttle body and ISC would act up when operating temperature increases. They can cause excessive low idling and would start and stall unless accelerator pressure is applied.
